Full transcript
Thanks for meeting with me today, Marek. I wanted to explain how joining the union could support you here at the Dandenong manufacturing plant, especially regarding safety.
Dziękuję, że pani przyszła. Od jakiegoś czasu zastanawiam się, czy warto dołączyć do związku zawodowego.
Of course. As a member, you'd have access to collective bargaining, workplace safety advocacy, and legal representation whenever disputes arise at work.
To brzmi dobrze, ale chciałbym wiedzieć, ile kosztuje członkostwo i czy muszę płacić co tydzień.
Membership with the United Workers Union costs nine dollars and twenty cents a week, which can be deducted directly from your pay if you prefer.
Rozumiem. A co, jeśli dojdzie do wypadku przy pracy? Czy związek pomoże mi w takiej sytuacji?
Yes, we assist with WorkCover claims and provide legal advice throughout the process. However, if you're not a financial member, you can't access that support.
Rozumiem. Jak mogę się zapisać? Czy to zajmie dużo czasu?
You can sign up online through our website today; it only takes about five minutes, and I'm happy to help you now if you'd like.
To by było wspaniałe. A czy odbywają się jakieś spotkania związkowe, gdzie mógłbym poznać innych pracowników?
Yes, we meet on the third Wednesday of each month at six o'clock in the evening, at the union hall near Dandenong train station.
Bardzo dziękuję za pani czas i pomoc. Na pewno przyjdę na najbliższe spotkanie.
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.
- workcoverZostawić jako 'WorkCover' i dodać krótkie wyjaśnienie: 'ubezpieczenie od wypadków przy pracy'.
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.
