SpeechBubble - Safety Talks is available in three volumes of 20 - 21 talks each:
It comes on a memory stick which is simply inserted into the USB port on any device. It is extremely easy to use and navigate and does not require a safety professional to deliver the talk. It is an inexpensive way to overcome what, for many, is a complex and difficult challenge.
Print Function:
SpeechBubble is an animated training aid that runs on any laptop or PC, on any platform. However, we do recognise, that it is not always practicable or convenient to use these devices on site, so in SpeechBubble™ – Safety Talks, we have included a print function. This means that any safety talk can be printed off in any of the languages and delivered on site to workers.
Assessment:
How do we ensure the message has been received and understood? As we have said, this can be a problem. The only way to ensure is to test the workers grasp of what has been delivered. SpeechBubble™ – Safety Talks includes a short multiple choice assessment with each talk which a worker can complete in his own language. This can be assessed on a simple matrix by a supervisor. All the answers will correspond so that if (A) is correct in English, it will also be correct in Romanian
