Never use your time for doing nonsense things like chatting, gossiping, texting, etc.

or behaving well. Your employer trusts you that you can do your own work without so
much supervision. You can also be asked for help at times your employer and your
coworker.

7. Commitment to Excellence. You do not only work just for compliance but you
work hard to produce the best output or best quality.

mistake and learn from it. Ask for help if you’re not sure how to handle a situation.
Language is an important aspect of communication whether you are talking with a co-
worker in the privacy of your own office or to a customer. Practice using language that is
appropriate for the workplace in your everyday conversations so that you get into the
habit of sounding professional. Lastly, always dress up appropriately.

employee, you must listen to suggestions. Be positive on different challenges. You also
accept responsibility entrusted to you and admit your own mistakes if ever you commit
one. Respect everyone in the workplace. Respect begets respect.

10. Cooperation. So how do you demonstrate your cooperation in a workplace? You’re


right...You know how to follow rules and regulations of the workplace. You also know
how to get along with others. Besides, you also show appreciation of the privileges and
never abuse them.

and bulges.
4. Avoid eating candies, smoking cigarettes and chewing gum when you are inside

armpits.

you look untidy and unprofessional.
