2. Why is it that office manner & etiquette is so important?
The basic answer is that with good office manner etiquette everyone can be
comfortable and effective in the workplace. Of course, 100% comfort and efficiency is
an impossible ideal but we can say that 90 percent is a good margin to shoot for and by
using good etiquette techniques and behaviors, we think you can achieve 90% or
perhaps even above, as far as etiquette is concerned.
What makes for good office etiquette then? Simply put, having good office
etiquette means that you are respectful and considerate both of your co-workers and of
the overall office environment around you.
With that said, here are a few situations where we think you should be especially
mindful of having good workplace etiquette.
NOISE
The simplest thing to cover here is having good etiquette when it comes to
talking. Usually, talking too loudly or too much are the problems here. If you're unsure
whether or not you're doing these things in the office, it can usually be as simple as
asking one of your co-workers. A related subject here is the question of phone calls,
again, talking too loudly can be an issue as well as discussing things over the phone that
are really too personal in nature and not appropriate for a workplace environment.
PHYSICAL TOUCH
The short answer here is just don't do it. Today's office climate, just like society as
a whole, is currently undergoing a bit of a shift in how we view the nature of physical
touch between people like co-workers or general acquaintances. Overall, it's always
best to be reserved and considerate.
PASSIVE-AGGRESSIVE
This tactic which includes such behaviors as saying something slightly petty to
make others feel guilty or more generally, acting in an underhanded way to try and
punish someone, will not only affect others in the short term but will also affect you in
the long term. Needless to say, all of these effects will be negative.
GOSSIPING

3. Gossip can sometimes be seen as a form of currency in offices because people do
like to be let in on secrets and they can feel special or privileged if they feel they know
something that others don't but this kind of behavior just leads to social stratification
and will ultimately lead to infighting among co-workers. So it's best to avoid gossip.
TIMELINESS
Just show up on time. If you're a person who's chronically late, you'll develop a
reputation as someone who doesn't take their job responsibilities seriously. Also, it's
important to remember that punctuality is about respecting other people's time, as well
as your own.
OFFICE EVENTS
In short, you should always try to attend them when you're able. Of course,
missing out every once in a while is certainly fine but you don't want to develop a
reputation as somebody who's always too important or too busy to participate in office
events. Overall, you want to be seen as a team player within your office.
COMMON USE SPACES
The biggest issue with this type of danger zone is usually the question of overall
cleanliness. Let's start here by talking about the office kitchen or break room. In short,
keep things clean. If you make a mess, clean it up, it's that simple.
Of course, you're not perfect and neither is anyone else and it's unreasonable to
expect perfection from anyone including yourself, however, if there is someone in your
workplace who's consistently breaking the rules of good office manner & etiquette, it
can lead to a demoralized and unproductive workplace and it should be dealt with. So
the simplest way to proceed then in these kinds of situations is calmly and rationally,
personally and in private if you can help it, and directly.
