Work Environment
 The term work environment is used to describe the
surrounding conditions in which an employee
operates. The work environment can be composed of
physical conditions, such as office temperature, or
equipment, such as personal computers. It can also
be related to factors such as work processes or
procedures
 The work environment can involve the social
interactions at the workplace, including interactions
with peers, subordinates, and managers. Generally,
and within limits, employees are entitled to a work
environment that is free from harassment. A hostile
work environment exists when unwelcome sexual
conduct interferes with an employee's job
performance, or creates a hostile, intimidating, or
offensive work environment.
Creating a Positive Work Environment
A positive work environment is not only important
for our physical, mental and emotional health, but
is also important for the product or service we
produce for the company. The better we feel at
work, the more likely we will take pride in our work
functions and be loyal toward our place of
employment. We have all worked at places where
we were less than excited to get up and go to work
in the morning. This can be an awful feeling. It is
much more pleasant, and less stressful to work in
an environment that is positive and enjoyable.
Be on time, with an open
mind, ready for work
Being on time for work means being on the job
site or at your work station. Employees are
expected to be ready to work at the assigned
start time; not in the parking lot or cafeteria, etc.
Wearing clean, safe, comfortable work attire that
is not offensive to those around you is helpful.
You must always be unimpaired, with a clear
head and an open mind when considering the job
at hand. Always remember your way may not
always be the best or only way to do a job.
Always be optimistic
When something goes wrong during the day look
at it as an opportunity for improvement. Always
try to enjoy your work. Be optimistic and help
others solve problems that arise, without blame or
sarcasm.
Placing blame or being sarcastic only adds to a
problem and does not contribute to finding
solutions.
Use your time wisely
 If you should find free time during your work day,
clean up the job site. It is always easier to do a
job in a clean, organized work area. It is also
safer for you and your coworkers.
Understand diversity and
promote equality
Diversity brings a broad body of talent with fresh
ideas, perspectives and views. The challenge that
diversity poses is being open minded, growing
and learning from fresh ideas, and perspectives.
Understand your own biases, as you spend your
day in a workplace with a mix of genders,
cultures, ages and lifestyles.
Other things to remember
Humor is a good thing when used tactfully and
tastefully. It may diffuse a touchy situation and
break the tension when things are tense.
Give credit and appreciation to your co-workers.
Be approachable.
Remember that everyone is equal and every job is
important in fulfilling the goals of your employer.
Be willing to take on tasks and assignments.
Be proud of your workplace…remember you are a
part of it.
Points to Remember!
Be kind.
Be organized.
Be on time.
Be open minded.
Treat others as you would like to be treated.
