Targeted Safety Training for Non-English Speakers

Targeted Safety Training for Non-English Speakers
Our fastest growing workforce segment is made up of immigrants. Tailoring your comprehensive training program to include non-English or English as a Second Language Speakers will dramatically improve your results.
Some things you want to consider when developing training are listed below.

Content:
Is the content easily understood and inclusive across cultures?
Are the graphics understandable and non-offensive to all workers?

Print Materials:
Are they hard to read
Should they be translated
Are they written that is culturally acceptable

Video Safety Training:
Should it be translated
Should you add closed-captioning
Who is the target
What is the objective
Do you have supplemental testing materials to measure effectiveness of the training

Evaluate your training materials with these considerations to help you create an effective and comprehensive training for all employees. We can help you create training materials and testing materials to be OSHA compliant and enable a safe working environment for all workers.
