The work site identification system is only used at identified live rescue sites. Only these sites are marked using the convention below. This allows teams to move faster, maximises life-saving opportunities and simplifies coordination.
The marking should be applied to the front, (or as close as possible) or main entry to the worksite. A worksite marking is placed in and around a box 1.2m wide and 1m high. The colour used can be any colour that is contrasting to the surroundings.
If a team considers there is a need to leave critical additional information at the worksite this can be added to the worksite marking using plain language in full view when required.
Worksite ID:
40cm high inside box
Triage category:
10cm high below box
Safe entrance arrow
If entry point is not obvious, point to it. Hazards: Written above box as they are identified
ASR information Added as each team completes an ASR level. Written in the following format: Team ID - ASR completed - Date

The example shows that Fire & Rescue NSW assessed Sector B on January 3. They found the building to be a live rescue site and named it work site "B-2".
They found confirmed live victims inside large voids (triaged as Category A).
The entry point is located to the left of the marking and there is asbestos on site. |
ASR information Added as each team completes an ASR level. Written in the following format: Team ID - ASR completed - Date | 
The example shows that NSW State Emergency Service returned to the site the next day and competed a rapid search and rescue of victim(s).

ASR information Added as each team completes an ASR level. Written in the following format: Team ID - ASR completed - Date | 
The example shows that Queensland Fire & Emergency Service returned to the site two days later and competed a full heavy search and rescue of victim(s).

After all work is complete at the work site and it is determined that no further rescue work is required, draw a horizontal line through the box between the Worksite ID and the first ASR line.
(Note: This may not necessarily be at the conclusion of ASR Level 5. It may be earlier in the operation that a determination is made that work is no longer required) | 
The example shows that after their last rescue, Queensland Fire & Emergency Service determined that rescue operations are complete at the work site. |
