B2 adults discussing work can move beyond personal job experience into analysing how work functions as a social and economic institution. These 50 questions engage adults with the structural issues behind daily work life: 'Should companies be required to publish salary ranges?' 'Is remote work making inequality worse or better?' 'Does a four-day work week actually increase productivity?' Each question demands evidence-based argumentation about contested workplace issues that B2 speakers can analyse and debate.
The vocabulary reflects the language of workplace policy and economics: 'automation,' 'outsourcing,' 'gig economy,' 'burnout,' 'equity,' and 'remote work.' These terms appear in professional media and policy debate. Producing them in spoken discussion signals the register awareness that B2 proficiency demands.
Work as a social and economic institution
B2 adults discussing work benefit from questions that connect personal experience to systemic analysis. 'Has technology made your work easier or harder?' starts personal but leads to broader discussion about automation, surveillance, and the changing nature of employment. The best B2 discussions move fluidly between the personal and the analytical.
Professional policy vocabulary
For B2 adults in business English, MBA preparation, or professional development programmes, these questions practise the discussion skills needed for boardrooms, strategy meetings, and conference panels. The ability to discuss workplace trends with nuance and appropriate vocabulary is a career-differentiating skill.
