Dutch at work

Employees working together and not speaking the same language will have difficulty communicating with each other. And that can cause serious mistakes. Specific language training can solve many of these communication problems. Fiolet Language Training offers language training on the shop floor which is geared to the nature and requirements of the work.

An employee who is unfamiliar with commonly used words or expressions will not (completely) understand working assignments and may therefore make mistakes in carrying out the work.
Communication problems can also give cause for tension and irritation on the work floor. An employee who has problems distinguishing between formal and informal use of language, will not always understand what people mean. This can easily lead to conflicts between colleagues. There are numerous examples of working situations in which insufficient knowledge of the Dutch language and culture has an unfavourable effect on the relationship between employees and therefore on productivity. A course in Dutch on the work floor offers a number of advantages: the language spoken and written at the company is within reach and the learner does not lose any travelling time. Moreover, the teacher can often consult with the learner's superior in order to better gear the training to the needs. On request, we can provide a specified quotation for training on the work floor.
