Full transcript
Thanks for meeting me during your break, Manoj. You mentioned some safety concerns at the warehouse recently — tell me what's been happening.
ମୁଁ ଗୋଦାମରେ କାମ କରୁଛି ଯେଉଁଠାରେ ଫୋର୍କଲିଫ୍ଟଗୁଡ଼ିକ ଲୋଡିଂ ଡକ୍ ପାଖରେ ବେଗରେ ଚାଲନ୍ତି, କିନ୍ତୁ କୌଣସି ସୁରକ୍ଷା ବ୍ୟାରିଅର୍ ନାହିଁ। ମୋତେ ଡର ଲାଗୁଛି ଯେ କେହି ଗୁରୁତର ଭାବେ ଆହତ ହେବେ।
Have you reported this to your supervisor, or through the warehouse's official hazard log? I'm also from the United Workers Union.
ମୁଁ ଏହା ମୋର ସୁପରଭାଇଜରଙ୍କୁ ଦୁଇଥର ଜଣାଇଛି, କିନ୍ତୁ ଏପର୍ଯ୍ୟନ୍ତ କିଛି ପରିବର୍ତ୍ତନ ହୋଇନାହିଁ। ମୁଁ ଚିନ୍ତିତ ଏହା ବଡ଼ ଦୁର୍ଘଟଣାରେ ପରିଣତ ହୋଇପାରେ।
Under work health and safety law, your employer must address serious hazards. If it isn't fixed, you can lodge a complaint with SafeWork NSW.
ଏହା ସତରେ ଚିନ୍ତାଜନକ। ମୁଁ ୟୁନିଅନ୍ରେ ଯୋଗ ଦେବାକୁ ଚାହୁଁଛି, କିନ୍ତୁ ମୁଁ ଏଠାରେ କେବଳ ତିନି ମାସ ହେଲା କାମ କରୁଛି। ମୁଁ ଯୋଗ ଦେଇପାରିବି କି?
You're eligible to join even if you've only worked here three months. Weekly fees are affordable, and safety issues are usually addressed, though nothing is guaranteed.
ଠିକ୍ ଅଛି, ମୁଁ ଯୋଗ ଦେବାକୁ ଚାହେଁ। ମୁଁ କେମିତି ଯୋଗ ଦେଇପାରିବି?
You can join online today through the United Workers Union website — membership starts immediately, and you can also contact SafeWork NSW if hazards persist.
ଏହା ଭଲ ଲାଗୁଛି। କିନ୍ତୁ ଯଦି କମ୍ପାନୀ ଜାଣିଯାଏ ମୁଁ ଯୋଗ ଦେଇଛି, ମୋତେ ଚାକିରିରୁ ବାହାର କରିଦେବେ ନାହିଁ ତ?
Your employer can't legally dismiss or discipline you for joining a union — that's protected under the Fair Work Act, no exceptions.
ଧନ୍ୟବାଦ, ଏହା ଶୁଣି ମୋତେ ନିଶ୍ଚିନ୍ତ ଲାଗୁଛି। ମୁଁ ଆଜି ହିଁ ଫର୍ମ ପୂରଣ କରି ଯୋଗ ଦେବି।
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 work'Fair Work' ବା 'Fair Work Ombudsman' ଭାବେ ଇଂରାଜୀ ନାମ ସିଧାସଳଖ କହନ୍ତୁ, ଆବଶ୍ୟକ ପଡ଼ିଲେ ସାଙ୍ଗରେ କହନ୍ତୁ 'ଏହା କାର୍ଯ୍ୟ ଅଧିକାର ଓ ମଜୁରି ସମ୍ବନ୍ଧୀୟ ସରକାରୀ ସଂସ୍ଥା।'
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.
