Posted By May Warley Hi everybody, I have been informed that a few agency workers from Poland have not been utilising our smoke shelter, instead they would smoke outside the shelter. I need help to write a notice regarding this issue in Polish. You can email me on maywarley@jsg.comThanks. May

Is it obligatory to use the shelter - or is it provided to keep the rain off? - perhaps they prefer smoking in fresh air

You might have a greater need to write all of your safety information in Polish!

Yes, it is obligatory. The management has decided that smoking is not allowed in anywhere else other than in the smoke shelter.

Agree with Brigham - the Polish staff not understanding that they must smoke inside the shelter may be the least of your worries. What else may they not understand?
Is their English all poor? Sometimes you will find that amongst a group of foreign staff, at least one will have sufficient spoken English that they will be able to provide translation for the others.
If there is a large Polish community in the area, you could try an advert in the local paper for someone to do translations for you.

Use pictures instead of words wherever you can
Pictures are very effective and little is lost in translation
Worked on a site with ~10 nationalities and pictures worked every time
