Hello!
We are working our way towards SQF Certification. I am having a hard time figuring out the best way to go about formally training our employees.
Our company has many employees that speak very little English.They have been with the company for a number of years and of course, set in their ways. We have two supervisors on the floor that we rely on to relay messages since they speak both languages.
I have been posting signs around the production area that are bilingual with pictures (for example, a sign about wearing protective clothing) to help get the message across, they can also be used as reminders and help implement some changes that are extremely needed!!
My question is, what is required to show that training was done? I have a training register and matrix but I am worried that the auditor would want to see something more. One person said to write up a quiz, but I am not sure if this is the best idea? Is it enough to have the employees be trained by the supervisors and then they sign off that they got the training?
I am wondering if anyone else has encountered a similar challenge? Any ideas or advice for going forward?
Thank you!
