saw your message and thought I’d reply as the State Law Library often gets
questions about this topic. Although it requires gathering materials from
a
number
of agencies, workplace posters are generally available online for no cost.
MIOSHA workplace posters may be found online (it is better to call the office
directly for some of the posters as they may be hard to print)

This company's sales tactics are beyond aggressive. They have wasted hours of
staff time by repeatedly calling and bullying staff members. We have purchased
our Labor Law posters from this company at various times in the past. They have
not been our only
supplier
but we have used their product to save money by switching companies
periodically. We will NEVER do business with them again. They have repeatedly
called our business over the last month. Their verbiage is alarming and
threatening ... making front line
staff
feel panicked and concerned. They have tried to get staff to make purchases
they aren't authorized to do based on fear tactics. They refuse to take NO for
an answer. I told them I receive their emails and will contact them if I need
anything, but that
did
not help. Today, they harassed the Assistant Director for 15 minutes and then
demanded my personal phone number saying our account was "flagged".
When I arrived, I spoke with the salesperson and demanded to be removed from
their contact list stating that
we
will not do business with them again and not to contact us further.

I want to be removed from their contact list in every way possible... I do not
want them to contact us
further.<o:p /></span>
