Lockout notice
That’s the line. We translate the paper your workers get on day one and the paper they walk past every day after, and we keep the words the same everywhere so a “lockout” on the sign is a “lockout” in the handbook.
Plain language costs you nothing in meaning. It's the difference between a notice people skim and a notice people follow. In the notice package, we run this pass for you.
Both versions shown one above the other.
Prior to performing any servicing or maintenance on the equipment, employees shall ensure that all energy sources have been isolated and that their personally assigned lock has been affixed to the energy-isolating device.

Spanish and Hmong first. Arabic next. Then Polish, Vietnamese, Russian and the rest of the 15.
One caveat: Hmong and Tagalog sometimes add a business day, because fewer linguists work those pairs. Everything else runs to the dates on the cards.
Drag the line. Left is the first draft, right is what the second linguist leaves.
This is context, not a promise. Translating your documents helps you give instructions in a language your crew reads.
We translate the documents you give us. We don’t write safety programs, train workers, run audits, or tell you what OSHA requires. OSHA’s 2010 training policy says instruction has to be in a language and vocabulary workers understand. Whether your training meets that is your call, or your safety consultant’s. Not legal advice.
Word files first. Then editable PDFs. The brief asks which jobs the notice applies to, who reads it, and whether you want a glossary.
HR files carry personal data: pay, Social Security numbers, medical notes. Remove what we don’t need before you upload.
