Correct Answer - Option 1 : Fire prevention 

Explanation:

A colour code is a system for displaying information by using different colours. The United Kingdom adopted a colour code scheme for such communication wherein red signified danger and white signified safety, with other colours having similar assignments of meaning.

  • The colour code identifies the type of hazard, which helps the employee identify the level of severity. It is meant to reduce the possibility of injuries.

The colour of safety

  • Red: Fire protection equipment, Danger, high risk of injury or death, Emergency stops and alarms

  • Orange: Moderate risk of injury, Guarding devices

  • Yellow: Caution statements, Minor risk of injury, Materials handling equipment

  • Green: Safety equipment or information, First aid equipment or location

  • Blue: No immediate hazard

The meanings of various colours on these placards also are standardized:

  • Red – combustible materials
  • Yellow – oxidizers
  • White – poison or toxic
  • Orange – explosives
  • Green – non-flammable gas
  • Red and white stripe – Flammable solid
