warning notice

Posted danger announcement

A warning notice is a formal communication alerting someone to danger, a rule violation, or potential consequences.

Employers issue warning notices to document misconduct: She received a written warning notice for repeated tardiness.

Safety warning notices appear on products and in workplaces.

The phrase is somewhat redundant, since warnings and notices overlap in meaning, but it emphasizes the official or documented nature of the communication.
