First, you have some time to look at questions eleven to sixteen on page three. 00:01:01,220 Now listen carefully and answer questions eleven to sixteen. 00:01:08,860 Right. Hello. Six weeks ago, we had a visit from a group of health and safety inspectors. The purpose of this meeting then is mainly to give you some feedback from their report, and then for you to pass this on to the people in your department. Anyway, let's start with the fire notices. 00:01:31,360 In last year's inspection, we got a tick for visibility. 00:01:36,380 I believe there's at least three notices per room, so that's all good. But it was suggested that the maps and diagrams for the evacuation route were a bit confusing, overly complicated. So that's something we've been working on, and that's now met with the inspector's approval. 00:01:58,120 The health and safety inspectors pointed out a few problems needing attention, and we'll start with our offices. 00:02:06,440 The issue here really is about obstruction. People are leaving empty boxes and trays on the floor, and that's basically an accident waiting to happen. So please set up a meeting with your staff and deal with this. It shouldn't be a problem. We had new desks and chairs arrive only two months ago, and the workspace has been designed pretty well. 00:02:33,620 One thing the inspectors looked at this time were our computer screens. In case you don't know, the staff member here trained to carry out regular assessment of the screens is Sarah Millington. You know, she's back from maternity leave. The inspectors looked at the records she's been keeping and particularly liked the fact that it was done every month, which is more often than comparable workplaces. 00:03:01,600 The inspectors also left us with some information about how to reduce glare from the screens and how to position them, that kind of thing, so there's less damage done to the eyes. You'll get a copy at the end of the meeting, and it'll be your responsibility to ensure these measures are taken in your department. 00:03:23,400 One thing management talked about with the inspectors was the line of protective clothing we introduced in the factory. You will remember the new design was a significant investment, mainly because the material's far more durable. 00:03:40,080 Unfortunately, a few workers haven't been happy with the change. However, the inspectors shared our opinion that the clothing is appropriate for the kind of work being carried out, so we'll be retaining the new design. 00:03:55,960 We talked about different kinds of hazards with the inspectors, including the risk of spilt chemicals and faulty electrical equipment, and they agree we're doing everything possible to minimize risks. 00:04:11,630 They were satisfied with the way we conduct discussions with employees about how to deal with hazards once management's been informed about it, that is. 00:04:22,140 But their recommendation was that we need to provide a bit more instruction on what a hazard actually is so that staff know whether something's a workplace risk or not. 00:04:35,720 And finally, first aid training. There's another course next month open to anyone with an interest in learning about the basics. So as heads of department, please make an appropriate announcement and encourage participation. The more people who are trained up, the better. 00:04:58,140 Before you hear the rest of the talk, you have some time to look at questions seventeen to twenty on page four. 00:05:25,400 Now listen and answer questions seventeen to twenty. 00:05:33,060 Okay. So that our staff can be healthier, it was suggested a few months ago that we negotiate a contract with a health club, meaning our staff can go along to the club and pay a reduced fee. We've looked at a number of clubs so far. The Bridges Center was a bit run down. A couple of machines needed repairing, apparently. But it is on a main bus route, so that'd be convenient. And they were willing to forget the joining fee if staff signed up for a year. 00:06:07,520 Shapes has a good reputation, and it's within walking distance of the company offices. They wanted us to commit to a two-year enrollment contract, however, and at this point, we're not willing to do that. Then Jack's Gym, apparently it's just been done up and the machines are state-of-the-art. How do people feel about traveling outside of town, though? 00:06:32,740 I doubt that'd work for a lot of staff. 00:06:36,000 The final one, Jets Fitness. According to this report, the changing rooms need an upgrade and the pool's on the small side. Having said that, it's inside the shopping mall, so there's the option of driving or taking public transport. 00:06:52,960 Well, you've all been given a copy of the report. Please pass it on to staff. 00:07:01,180 That is the end of section two. 00:07:04,020 You now have half a minute to check your answers. ## 题目与答案 ### 11. 11 What improvement has recently been made to the company s fire notices? 11 What improvement has recently been made to the company s fire notices? - Their wording has been simplified. - Their visuals are now clearer. - They are now more effectively displayed. **答案**：Their visuals are now clearer. 原文定位：But it was suggested that the maps and diagrams for the evacuation route were a bit confusing, overly complicated.
