Employer Etiquette
Employer Etiquette is how you conduct yourself in your capacity as an employer to your employees
Be respectful to your employees. Do not play favourites with any of them or you will quickly lose the respect of the rest of them If an employee disagrees with you, hear them out. Give them your full attention. You may learn something useful from them. You will certainly get a different perspective on the subject. This is an excellent opportunity to test your skill at handling the disagreement with tact and sensitivity. Never be dismissive or invalidate your employee's point of view. Do not trivialise their opinion Get to know your employees; remember what they tell you about themselves. Keep notes to help your memory if necessary Be sure to know their names Respect what is told to you in confidence Introduce new employees to their co-workers and have proper indoctrination procedures in place to make them feel welcome and useful from the start Tell them what you expect of them Let them get on with it Help them when they need it Tell them how they are doing Reward and encourage them

Do not take them for granted Don't ‘snoopervise’ (snooping supervision) Deal with employee grievances promptly and fairly. Do NOT trivialise them
Even though you pay your employees, show them that they are appreciated
Even though you are the boss, good etiquette requires that you keep your interruptions to a minimum and always apologise if your intrusion is an interruption to their concentration, a discussion or other activity Dress smartly as an example to your employees NEVER arrive at work drunk, smelling of alcohol on under the influence of drugs You may also be interested in...
