Portuguese Phrase
Garante que todas as pessoas envolvidas estejam seguras.
Meaning
The sentence is a directive telling someone to ensure the safety of every person who is part of a given situation. It emphasizes responsibility for the well‑being of all involved parties. The use of the subjunctive (estejam) signals that the safety is a desired state, not yet guaranteed.
When to use
Use this phrase when you are coordinating an event, a work site, a travel group, or any scenario where multiple people could be at risk. It works well in both informal spoken Portuguese and semi‑formal written instructions, especially in safety briefings or emergency protocols.

Garante (imperative/indicative)
In informal commands the present indicative can be used as an imperative: "Garante" = "Make sure".

The conjunction "que" introduces a clause that requires the subjunctive mood because the action is not a fact but a desired outcome.
Past participle as adjective
"envolvidas" is the feminine plural form of the past participle of "envolver", agreeing with "pessoas".
estejam (present subjunctive)
"Estejam" is the 3rd‑person plural present subjunctive of "estar", required after "que".
Adjective agreement
"seguras" must agree in gender and number with "pessoas" (feminine plural).

Cultural Tip
In Brazil, safety language often leans toward the formal "assegure" or "certifique‑se" in corporate settings, while "garante" feels more colloquial and is common among friends or small teams. Remember to match the register to your audience; in a formal safety manual, prefer "assegure" or "garanta".
