Pro Vocabulary Lab: Handling Time Pressure at Work

“Handling Time Pressure at Work” is a Pro Vocabulary Lab from Real Business English for international professionals who already use English at work and need better language for busy, time-sensitive situations. You’ll practice what to say when work is delayed, a deadline is getting close, someone needs to act today, or you have to say that you cannot take on another task right now. Each section starts with a short workplace situation. Then you listen to a natural dialogue, check the key phrases, and practice saying your own response out loud. The lab includes phrases such as “I’m swamped,” “I’m tied up,” “this can’t wait,” “we can’t let this sit another day,” “we’re short on time,” and “we need to act on this today.”
