Every employer expects the staff to behave in a consistent manner  with the mission and the company’s objectives. When defining the rules for behavior in the company, the manager sets expectations about acceptable behavior. A positive approach to maintaining high standards for what concerns the work ethic usually creates a productive environment. Of which all persons (employees, customers, suppliers and partners) are proud to be part of.

Human Resources: respect and communication in business

Pretending that all employees valorise the opinions of others, treat their clients with dignity and recognize cultural diversity, companies ensure compliance in the workplace.

According to several studies and surveys in the business world, if employees have a negative attitude towards an employee from another culture, productivity tends to decrease. That’s why, for the management of human resources, it is important to promote internal activities that help staff to work better.

We speak, for example, about workshop with  team building exercises, designed to improve communication, resolve internal problems and make decisions efficiently. Through these activities, companies can help their staff to work better. So to optimize, consequently, productivity.

Cooperation and team work

A good HR leader  is able to promote cooperation and collaboration in the workplace, involving subordinates in decision-making meetings. But also developing skills in conflict management.

To minimize the disturbances that affect productivity is critical to communicate honestly and openly with employees.

A team composed of members who trust in their superiors, will tend to derive greater satisfaction from work. And to keep a positive view of their role in the company. All this inevitably leads to higher productivity, reducing operating costs and greater satisfaction from customers.

Appearance, character, participation and organization

There are four points that demonstrate a positive and respectful attitude towards their work and the company.

A well-trained employee meets the dress code, safety procedures, ethical standards and always exercising self-discipline.

Company policies regarding work ethic almost always start by an internal investigation. It is important to ask the employees to consider how their behavior can affect certain situations. And vice versa. For example, if a staff member would create difficulties being publicly criticized and judged for their actions, he should avoid  to criticize and judge publicly colleagues.

The unethical behavior causes distractions that reduce productivity and destroy the working environment for all.
