安全检查？

Answer 1

What’s this?

It’s a memo about a safety inspection scheduled for next week.

A safety inspection

Question 2

我们怎么可能通过安全检查？

你是什么意思？这不是一个不安全的工作场所。

Answer 2

How are we ever going to pass a safety inspection?

What do you mean? This isn’t an unsafe workplace.

Question 3

我们有一个良好的记录。今年我们的员工没有发生过工伤，我们也从来没有发生过死亡事故。我不明白你为什么这么担心。

Answer 3

We’ve had a good record. None of our employees have had on-the-job injuries this year and we’ve never had a fatality. I don’t understand why you’re so worried.

Question 4

据我所知，检查员并不只是看受伤率。他们找的是小的，可能在未来具有危险的危害

Answer 4

From what I’ve heard, the inspectors don’t just look at injury rates. They look for the smallest hazard that may be remotely dangerous.

Question 5

如果我们被通报批评，我们可能会被关闭。

恕我直言，我不认为事情是这样的。

Answer 5

If we get cited, we may be shut down.

With all due respect, I don’t think that’s how it works.

Question 6

是的，检查员会检查我们的工作环境和我们的设备和机器，以确保没有危险或有毒物质。

这正是我所担心的。

Answer 6

Yes, the inspector will look at our work environment and our gear and machinery to make sure there are no hazards or toxic substances.

That’s what I’m worried about.

Question 7

但是，如果他们发现有违规行为，我们会有机会解决这个问题。他们不会不给我们机会来遵守他们的安全标准就把我们关闭。

Answer 7

But, if they find a violation, we’ll get a chance to fix the problem. They won’t shut us down without giving us a chance to comply with their safety standards.

Question 8

我当然希望你是对的。

我也是。下周的检查之后我们就会知道。

Answer 8

I sure hope you’re right.

Abigail: Me, too. We’ll know after next week’s inspection.
