Do you employ people whose native language is not Slovak? Perhaps they are our neighbors from the Czech Republic or Ukraine, or colleagues from the south, such as Serbia. Regardless of the distance from their homeland, you’ve likely asked yourself how to make them feel welcome and comfortable in your company.
Wellbeing is not just about good coffee ☕, employer feedback surveys, or gift vouchers.
For foreign employees, it’s especially about feeling safe, secure, and accepted — both in their professional and personal lives.
What can you do as an employer?
The first step may already be in place: you’ve created a work environment where they feel comfortable asking for help, understand the rules and expectations, and feel motivated and inspired by their work.
But the second step is key — language is the bridge to fundamental understanding.
What do we mean by that? 👉 The opportunity to learn the language — in this case, Slovak. Even a basic “small talk” glossary helps build stronger interpersonal relationships. Now imagine what a full year of learning Slovak with Flamingos Slovak School can do?
We already know the outcome 👉 a happier, more efficient, engaged, loyal, and grateful employee.
💡 By investing in the education of your employees, you’re nurturing a living, multilingual organization. When you give them space, support, and language skills, both your people and your company will thrive.
The linguistic and cultural transformation of your company starts here, with us, at Flamingos🦩.
