Even though 85% of workers recognise the importance of English skills, only 25% feel confident in all English skills at work, and 60% use English weekly.
Three-quarters believe better English would make their jobs easier.
88% think employers should offer more English training, but only a third have received it.
54% lack sufficient English training, and 56% find past instruction too focused on grammar and vocabulary, neglecting everyday usage.
