Workplace Etiquette

We have enough ways to get sick—the office doesn't need to be one of them. Here are three easy ways you can help to keep your workplace clean and germ-free.

  • Wipe down workspaces every day. Chances are, your custodian doesn't touch the workstations, let alone wipe them down. So take it upon yourself to make sure desks, phones and keyboards are cleaned every day. Purchase several bottles of disinfecting spray and packages of disinfecting wipes—and store them in a convenient location.
  • Send sick people home. Make sure your employees know that if they're sick and potentially contagious, you don't want them at the office. Create guidelines for employees to help them determine when they're OK to come in, and when they need to steer clear.
  • Wash your hands. We learned at a young age the importance of washing our hands, but a reminder never hurts. Put up signs in the restrooms that reiterate the importance of hand washing, and the role it plays in preventing the spread of germs.
