For the basic requirements for building site signs in Australia it is always wise to check your local state work health and safety regulations as rules and laws sometimes change between states and territories throughout Australia.
The Work Heath & Sfaety Regulations require all building sites to erect a builders sign in a position clearly visible from outside of the building site, containing the following information:
- The builders name (Principal Contractors Name)
- A contact phone number, including an after-hours phone number
- The location of the site office (if any)
It is recommended that the builders sign also includes safety information.
