***** Preface *****
The Workplace Literacy Program is a new addition to ChinatownManpower Project's array of training programs. Funded by the U.S.Department of Education, the WLP teaches workplace literacy to garmentworkers. Besides, there are a number of supporting agencies, includingthe International Ladies Garment Workers' Union (ILGWU) and Continen-tal Garment Manufacturers Association (CGMA), who offer their adviceand assistance in program planning and implementation.
The CMP-WLP has three full-time and five part-time staff. Regularclasses are run on weekends. During the first contract period of 18 months,300 garment workers will be able to receive training in job-related English.Besides teaching English as a Second Language, the program empha-sizes in teaching garment-related English, i.e. job-specific English lan-guage needed for their work, understanding garment terminologies andgarment making procedures, and how to read spec-sheet instructions inEnglish, etc. There is also a counselor. who can provide academic,vocational, personal counseling and referral services.
Due to the erratic work schedule of the garment workers and theoverwhelming response to the program. an innovative feature of broad-casting lessons has been added to the program in order to reach out to themany more workers including those who are outside New York City. Withthe contribution of free air time from the Sino Radio Broadcast Corporation,the WLP will broadcast job-related English lessons daily Monday to Friday.The time is 9:12 a.m. and after 7 o'clock news in the evening. Freebooklets, with assignments and self-tests, are printed and given tointerested listeners of the program.
By strengthening their workplace literacy skills, these workers will bemore qualified for career advancement within and outside the garmentindustry, and thus increase their earning potential. In addition, the factoryowners can benefit from having proficient English speaking workers whocan understand spec-sheet, communicate with the quality controller orhelp to oversee the shop when the owner is not available. Workers who canspeak English will enhance the effectiveness of operating the factory.
Toward this end, we truly appreciate the factory owners and workersin providing us with advice on our program curriculum. We hope that ourwork and service are beneficial to the garment industry.
