 CONDUCTING YOURSELF IN THE WORK
ENVIRONMENT

We can follow some simple workplace etiquette principles to ensure that we

know how to conduct ourself in the office.

 DRESS APPROPRIATELY FOR THE JOB:

It's critical to dress professionally for your job. Make sure your uniform is clean
and neat if your position requires one. If you're in a casual setting, avoid
wearing garments that are worn or have holes. Many workplaces have a
business casual dress code. This usually means no jeans, but your office's
specific protocol may differ.

 RESPECT AND GRATITUDE SHOULD BE SHOWN:

At work, everyone gets angry from time to time. It's critical to maintain respect
regardless of how you're feeling. Whether you're interacting with clients,
coworkers, or managers, this is crucial. Be patient and keep your voice quiet.
Pay attention to what they have to say and reply properly. If the situation is
tense, take a step back for a while to collect your thoughts. Allow an angry or
upset consumer to air their grievances and assure them that you have heard and
understood their issues.

 MAKING A POSITIVE IMPACT:

Work can be a chore at times. It's critical to maintain a cheerful attitude even on
bad days. When you can, lend a hand to your team. Make an effort to brighten
your customer's day. Show gratitude to coworkers that assist you. If you're
having a personal problem, try not to bring it to work with you. Use your job as
a way to refocus and brighten someone's day. It will help you as well.
  DON'T GOSSIP:

While you may be tempted to tell your cubicle neighbors what you heard about
Suzy or Sam down in accounting, gossiping makes you look like a middle
school student. If you know something you simply must share, tell someone
who has nothing to do with your workplace, like your sister, mother, or best
friend.

 BECOME A RESOURCE FOR YOUR COWORKERS:

When their coworkers are overburdened or experiencing a struggle at work, a

true professional is willing to assist them. They aren't scared to give their
information, ideas, or simply a helping hand. Everyone in their organization
benefits from one person's accomplishment.

 ALWAYS BE PUNCTUAL:

Punctuality is highly valued by businesses. Everyone is busy, and being late or

absent can have a negative influence on your coworkers and bosses. Call and
notify the proper person as soon as possible if there are an emergency.

 CLEARLY AND PROFESSIONALLY COMMUNICATE:

Maintain a professional demeanor when communicating at work. This is

especially true when it comes to email. When writing an email in a business
atmosphere, utilize entire sentences and punctuation. Use the subject line to
inform the recipient of the email about what to expect. Use capital letters
sparingly, as this can come out as yelling. Respond to emails as soon as
possible, particularly those from supervisors.

 DON'T BE A GRUMP:

Leave your bad mood at the door when you come to work. We all have days
when we aren't feeling our best. Remember not to take it out on your boss, your
co-workers, and especially your customers.
  BE ACCOUNTABLE:

To be accountable means to be responsible for your decisions and actions. It

means that you take responsibility for what you do. How does that translate to
the workplace?

It means that when you’re assigned a task, you complete it. If you don’t
complete it, you take responsibility for it, instead of blaming other people or
outside factors. It is very much tied to your work ethic and your willingness to
do the best work you can and accept the outcome of that work, whether good or
bad.

 BE HONEST:

Integrity in the workplace can lead to positive relationships. Co-workers who

trust each other are often productive and work well as a team. Be honest if you
need personal time off from work or an extra few day to complete a project.
Keep company and client information confidential. If you see dishonest
behaviour elsewhere in the workplace, report it to your manager.

 AVOID SOCIAL MEDIA:

Even if your job involves posting on social media sites and monitoring company
platforms, avoid checking your personal accounts during working hours. If a
colleague or manager notices that you are on social media during the day, they
might question your productivity.

 BE RELIABLE:

Show your colleagues and manager that they can rely on you to meet deadlines,
do quality work and show up to meetings on time. When someone asks you to
complete a task, commit to doing it well and finishing it on time.
Professionalism is defined as a person's behavior at work. Despite the word's
root, this attribute is not limited to what we refer to as "the professions," which
are often high-paying jobs that demand a lot of schooling.
Although these industries need little training and pay
less, many cashiers, maintenance workers, and servers can display a high level
of this attribute. A same number of doctors, lawyers, and engineers, all of whom
are referred to as professionals, can show relatively little.
