Increased needs for safety information in work places demand communication in pictorial forms as well as in letter forms. The progress of international trade has increased the need for standardization of safety signs in pictorial forms used easily and comfortably in industries across countries and languages. As head injuries have increased rapidly in work places, and more specific safety information regarding the use of PPE(Personal Protection Equipment) to protect against head injuries is being used, the standardization of the PPE symbols has become an imminent issue. This study will begin by firstly surveying what the optimum communication method is from academic research and a rational investigation on the decoding of graphic symbols based on human perceptual mechanism, and establishing a standardization strategy based on theoretical evidence. After understanding the problems in the current international standard enactment process and method, the study establishes a strategy in developing national standards suitable to be a global visual language on safety signs for the use of PPE. A total of 7 PPE symbols(e.g. wear ear protection, wear eye protection, wear a mask, wear respiratory protection, wear head protection, wear face shield, wear welding mask) are presented as design results after the data analysis of a comprehension test according to ISO 9186-1. This study concludes by presenting the procedures and methods to be taken for the PPE symbols to become a true global visual language hereafter.
