- Who is the Occupational Segregation poster for?
- Occupational Segregation belongs to the Sociology section rather than to a school year, because law & society is not something one grade owns. Anyone learning stratification & inequality can pin it up — a beginner, a student mid-course, or someone revising years later.
- When should you use the Occupational Segregation poster?
- When a workforce is equal in numbers but not in where those numbers sit. A wall chart earns its place by being glanceable from where the work is happening, so Occupational Segregation belongs on the wall where that law & society work actually happens, within glancing distance, rather than filed away.
- What other posters go with Occupational Segregation?
- The Gender Pay Gap, Class Schemes and Cultural Capital at Work sit alongside Occupational Segregation in the Sociology section. Printed together they make a wall rather than a single sheet, which is how a reference set actually gets used.The Gender Pay GapClass SchemesCultural Capital at Work
- Is the Occupational Segregation poster free to download and print?
- Yes. Occupational Segregation downloads as a free PDF with no account, no email and no watermark, like everything else in the Sociology section. Print as many copies as you like for a home, a classroom, a library or a tutoring group; reselling the file is the only thing the licence rules out.Read the licence
- What size does the Occupational Segregation poster print at?
- Occupational Segregation is a vector PDF laid out for US Letter, and prints on A4 with Fit to page — the same file, no separate download. Because every mark on it is drawn rather than photographed, it stays sharp enlarged to A3, A2 or A1 at a copy shop. Colour carries emphasis only, so a greyscale print of Occupational Segregation loses nothing.Printing guide
