David Flaws Employment Advocate — Finalist, Best Plain English Website — Private Sector
Media Release
12 September 2008
'I just got the news that this site has been selected as a finalist in the Best Website category at the 2008 Plain English Awards. I am delighted!
When people go looking for advice on employment law they usually have a problem in their workplace. It may be redundancy, or workplace bullying, or a personal grievance over dismissal. Whatever it is, the first thing they want and need is clear information in plain English. The site should be well structured and laid out so that the content is easy to understand.
Motuweb designed the website, and I wrote the content. We tried very hard to give information and advice in logical sequence and plain English. We are really pleased with the website and we are delighted that the 2008 Plain English Awards’ judges liked it too.
Good workplace relationships are also built on clear communication.
Successful advocacy and negotiation are also built on clear communication.
The 2008 Plain English Awards promote clear communication. We support them wholeheartedly.'
