Which type of invitee is specifically invited for a business purpose?

A business visitor is specifically invited onto a premises for a business purpose. This category of invitee is defined by the nature of the invitation, which is extended to them for the economic benefit of the business owner. The business owner has a duty to ensure that these visitors are kept reasonably safe from harm while on the premises because they are there for mutual benefit.

Public invitees, while invited, are typically members of the general public receiving an invitation to enter property that is open to the public, such as parks or museums, but they may not have the specific business purpose in mind. Volunteers do not fall under this category as they are not necessarily invited for the purpose of engaging in a business transaction or activity. Guests may be invited for social purposes and are not associated with a business context. Thus, the term "business visitor" best captures the concept of an invitee who is specifically invited for a business purpose.
