ISO 15223-1 has about 44 symbols in it. IEC/TR 60878 has over 500 in it. Many of the symbols in 15223-1 are in the 60878 but not all. However, the good news is that 60878 is being revised and the 3rd Ed should be published soon and will have all the symbols from 15223-1 in it (and over 800

The way I would apply it would be first to apply any specific safety messages that the end product standard states. If you need a safety message that is not defined by the end product standard, than the signal word you choose should follow their definitions and matched up with your risk
