Who is the Occupiers' Liability poster for?

When should you use the Occupiers' Liability poster?
A higher duty to lawful visitors; a limited one to trespassers. A wall chart earns its place by being glanceable from where the work is happening, so Occupiers' Liability belongs on the wall where that law & society work actually happens, within glancing distance, rather than filed away.
