English term
continue in a recurrent way
English
Bus/Financial
Education / Pedagogy
I am revising a document about corporate training policies written in English by a francophone.
I am convinced there is a better way to say "continue in a recurrent way" in English—I just can't think of it at the moment!
Any suggestions?

continue to regularly/systematically address ...
In this context, to 'continue' almost seems tautological with 'in a recurrent way' in English, and I think it would sound better (and give the same meaning) to use an adverb (as I have suggested above).
'ongoing' is closer to the meaning of 'in a recurrent way', but I think it sounds a bit tautological, as well. You could also just say 'continue to address H&S issues on a regular basis'

: quite agree - it may well be that "continue to address" is in fact sufficient

Thank you Armorel - it seemed to me to encompass the meaning of 'continue' as well as 'regularly, systematically'
