Full transcript
Thanks for coming in, Mrs Petrova. Please tell me exactly what happened after you told your supervisor about the pregnancy, and when this started.
Всичко започна, след като казах на управителя, че съм бременна. Само след два дни намалиха смяната ми от тридесет и осем на дванадесет часа седмично, без никакво обяснение.
Did management give you any written explanation for cutting your rostered hours from thirty-eight hours down to just twelve hours weekly, or was it verbal?
Не, нищо не получих писмено. Управителят само каза устно, че намаляват натовареността, но преди това винаги имах пълни смени, всяка седмица.
That's significant. Even if your manager never put it in writing, we can still request the roster records directly from the employer, along with witness statements.
Добре, разбирам. Една колежка също забеляза промяната и може да потвърди, че преди бременността ми имах редовни пълни смени всяка седмица.
The Fair Work Ombudsman can investigate this as possible pregnancy discrimination under the Fair Work Act, since your treatment changed almost immediately after you disclosed the pregnancy.
Това е добра новина. Притеснявах се, че нищо не може да се направи, защото нямам никакви писмени доказателства.
How long had you worked at the Newcastle distribution centre before your hours were suddenly reduced, and did any colleagues notice this change?
Работих там две години и три месеца преди това. Да, няколко колеги забелязаха и попитаха защо изведнъж съм на непълно работно време.
We'll lodge a formal complaint today and arrange a conciliation meeting with your employer for next Thursday morning at ten, at our Newcastle office.
Благодаря ви. Ще дойда в четвъртък сутринта в десет часа и ще донеса всички документи, които имам.
Terms in this dialogue that cost marks
CCL is marked on information transferred. These Australian terms have no direct word in most test languages — get one wrong and the segment's information is gone.
- fair workОставя се като „Fair Work“ на английски, тъй като е собствено име на институция.
- ombudsmanКандидатът може да каже „омбудсман“ (транслитерация), тъй като думата вече се използва в българския език в подобен смисъл, но е добре да се добави кратко пояснение като „институция за разглеждане на жалби“.
Practise it
Reading a transcript is not interpreting. The free daily dialogue on this site plays each segment at native speed, records you, and marks the information you transferred against the same categories examiners use — omissions, distortions, insertions — so you know where the marks went.

How the test works
Practice dialogue written to the CCL specification (two speakers, segments of 35 words or fewer, about 300 words). It is a practice text, not a NAATI test paper, and the AI score is this site's estimate, not a NAATI result. All Bulgarian dialogues · All languages
