Specialist HR Interpreting

HR departments are responsible for ever more diverse workforces, leading to ever wider responsibilities. Among a host of other duties, HR professionals need to source the best employees from a global market, ensure that all employees can access training and information materials, manage and measure the performance of employees, and oversee disciplinary and grievance procedures.

In all of this, Global Lingo is proud to support some of the best HR teams in the world. We provide interpreters for performance management in organisations undergoing global restructuring, we interpret at tribunals and grievances, and much more besides.

Client Databases

Our project managers strive to liaise with our clients as unobtrusively as possible so that we can determine the nature of the interpreting at the outset. From there, the interpreting moves to the specialist interpreters selected by the project manager. We work with our interpreters closely to build and maintain terminology banks that speed up as well as improve the process.

Global Lingo's HR interpreters are vetted and trained to ensure that only suitably qualified interpreters are used for your meeting. We guarantee that complex legal and operational details are conveyed accurately. Our global network allows us to build teams quickly for major projects, while our project management team is skilled in planning and quality control.

Confidentiality is Guaranteed

The strictest client confidentiality is one of our mantras. As well as the standard confidentiality agreements into which all of our interpreters are tied, we are happy to commit to any additional requirements you might have.

Case Study: Interpreting for HR Professionals

When a Human Resources manager was trying to organise the first meeting of a European Works Council, she approached us for support. She was so impressed by our service that she retained us after the first meeting to cover each of the ongoing EWC meetings.

The delegates for the meeting were drawn from eight countries, but not every one spoke English. Therefore, we assembled a team of interpreters for the required language combinations, with all the interpreters having several years’ experience of industrial-relations negotiation. Our interpreters were also willing to interpret during the social events around the negotiations, which made the meeting much more enjoyable for all involved. Again, we were able to secure the same interpreters for each subsequent meeting, which was to our client’s delight.

Global Lingo was also able to provide all the necessary equipment for the interpreting team. At the hotel venue, we set up soundproof booths for the interpreters at the back of the room, who communicated to the delegates through infrared equipment (our client was pleased not to have wires all over their desks).
