Where may fire symbols be displayed?

• A. Exterior locations
• B. Interior locations
• C. Both exterior and interior
• D. Not displayed anywhere

Answer: (B)

Fire hazard signs are a form of internal hazard communication meant to alert the people who work with or around the materials. In explosives storage, these symbols should be placed where they will be seen by authorized personnel who need to know the risk and follow safety controls (like controlling ignition sources, no smoking, and proper handling) during normal operations and in an emergency. Placing them inside keeps the information available to the staff who need it while reducing security risks and public exposure; exterior signs could reveal what is stored and attract unwanted attention. So, interior locations are the appropriate choice.
