Every worker has the right to know how to do their job safely. Using acronyms, jargon, and complex words can create barriers and make it hard for everyone to understand important health and safety guidance.
Plain language can ensure everyone understands hazard information, how to follow complex instructions, and is able to report a hazard to stay healthy and safe on the job.
Share this infographic as a helpful guide for using plain language in your workplace. Access more free resources from our plain language toolkit.
Infographics are designed to be read online, so we encourage you to share them to your online social networks and e-mail.
