- Abstract: Ineffective communication causes workplace anxiety for 80% of US employees (SoftActivity, 2021). This can lead not only to technical issues on the job but also to feelings of isolation and disengagement in the workplace. Plain Language is content that can be understood the first time your audience reads or hears it. Using Plain Language strategies helps to avoid misunderstandings in the workplace and demonstrates respect for your audience. Clear communication can also empower employees to perform their jobs more confidently and efficiently, leading to promotions and salary increases. Plain Language strengthens the thread of belonging in a work team by encouraging clear and open communication. You will leave with both written and verbal strategies you can use immediately to build a community of trust, respect, and inclusion within your workplace.
