Why this sign: Snorkelling equipment such as fins, masks and snorkels can pose a collision and entanglement risk to other pool users in enclosed swimming areas. This sign should be displayed at pool entrances, poolside barriers and changing room exits where the restriction applies. It is particularly important in busy public or leisure pools where space is limited and lifeguard supervision must remain unobstructed.

Compliance note: In Ireland, employers must provide appropriate safety signage where hazards cannot be avoided or adequately reduced by other measures, based on the workplace risk assessment, under the Safety, Health and Welfare at Work (General Application) Regulations 2007. This sign is suitable for use as part of a workplace safety-signage system where identified by that risk assessment.
