Manufacturing Journalist Thomas R Cutler Report Shifts in Safety and Employee Engagement of Spanish Speaking Workers

Making the workplace safe for Spanish-speaking employees requires modifying safety programs, according to manufacturing journalist, Thomas R. Cutler, who authored a new article in Manufacturing Tomorrow. Employees who speak limited or no English may represent the biggest challenges for maintaining corporate safety programs.

By setting up processes, leaders ensure that before beginning work, each employee uses an initial safety orientation. While new employees may have a basic understanding of the English language sufficient to review basic and initial safety orientations, it does not create a safety culture requiring on-going Spanish instructions.

Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) compliance, regardless of the specific training element, requires testing of comprehension. Helping Spanish-speaking employees understand OSHA compliance, is both a safety and employee engagement issue. When trainings are delivered in Spanish, the leadership is sharing they care about the safety of ALL employees, and want to guarantee everyone, including limited-English speakers, completely understands the safety training.
