What language challenges do companies employing foreign workers face?

Companies employing international staff most often face:

  • communication barriers in everyday work
  • difficulties understanding instructions, procedures, and health & safety rules
  • limited team integration
  • employee dependence on translators or supervisors
  • slower onboarding of new hires

Lack of language skills is not just a communication issue – it is an organizational problem.

How does a Polish-for-foreigners course work in a company?

The course program is based on language used in the workplace: on the production floor, in the office, in warehouses, and in project teams.

Participants learn:

  • how to communicate with supervisors and team members
  • how to respond to instructions and questions
  • the basics of formal workplace communication
  • vocabulary related to everyday job responsibilities

Classes are delivered in a clear, structured, and practical way.

Everyday Polish vs Polish at work – the key difference

Everyday Polish focuses on:

  • private-life situations
  • shopping, offices, and social conversations

Polish at work (for companies) focuses on:

  • workplace communication
  • instructions, procedures, and safety
  • team cooperation
  • real professional situations

In companies, Polish at work delivers real operational value. Everyday Polish, in turn, supports integration and functioning in the local community and daily life.

What do employees and the company gain?

Employees:

  • faster onboarding
  • greater independence
  • better understanding of rules and procedures

The company:

  • more efficient communication
  • lower risk of errors
  • better team integration
  • reduced burden on leaders and HR
