Nothing says compliance like a poster from OSHA

The law requires you to display your posters at a location that all employees visit at least once per day such as a break room, lunch room, time clock or job site. You can also display your compliance posters on the back of a door. All-On-One™ posters are easy to post on a door or on a limited wall space. They provide good visibility and yet are out of the way of traffic.

Photo Realistic Signage: The Updated Industrial Safety Products
T.A.S.C.O. Tip: Part of maintaining a safe work environment with industrial safety products includes displaying proper signage to keep occupants informed of the hazards that may exist. Signage is most effective when it is highly visible and sends a clear visual message at a glance. These industrial safety products aren’t merely available as brightly colored fixtures on walls anymore. Photo realistic signage is an industrial safety product that makes it clear to building occupants what hazards are in their immediate area. For instance, in areas where eye protection is necessary, you can select a bright colored caution sign with the image of protective eyewear to send a clear message to those in the area. In areas where flammability is an issue, photo realistic signage showing a caution sign with the image of flames leaves the viewer well aware of the possible dangers.

Compliance Plus Convenience
When deciding where to display your workplace safety posters, follow these simple common sense guidelines:
1) Place your posters in high traffic areas 2) Try to place your posters on a wall that faces the direction of travel. 3) Try to place them at eye level. 4) Try to coordinate safety topics at meetings that correspond to Posters currently on display. 5) Ensure maximum awareness by rotating your posters once a month. This will keep your message from becoming stale and ignored. If you leave a poster up too long, it becomes old news, which as we know becomes something in which nobody is really interested.
