Froehle's Rule of Management #1:
If you're considering a new organizational policy in order to get M employees to stop doing something you don't like, and the policy will affect N employees in total, it's probably a bad idea when N/M ≥ 2. Just deal with the M employees and let everyone else do their jobs.

I don't know who was the graphic designer of the international biological hazard symbol, but it's so evocative. It makes me uncomfortable looking at it, and I suspect I'd feel the same way even if I didn't know what it actually meant.
Apparently, it was developed in the mid-1960s by a Dow Chemical artist. I don't know what inspired him/her, but this symbol just oozes threat/harm and dynamism without using a single letter or typographic element. This is graphic design done right.
