NO GOSSIP POLICY!!!
In the workplace, gossip is an activity that can drain, distract and downshift employee job satisfaction. We all have participated in this, yet most of us say we don’t like it. In order to create a more professional workplace, I the undersigned am making a commitment to change our atmosphere to be gossip free.
gos·sip n. Rumor or talk of a personal, sensational, or intimate nature. A person who habitually spreads
intimate or private rumors or facts.Trivial, chatty talk or writing.
You will notice that gossip is a verb - which means it is something you DO. That also means that is something you choose to do – and you can choose NOT to do it. You enter into gossip by choice – you can opt out of the activity at work. In order to end gossip means to end a particular type of communications – and that can be talk or email communications.
• Gossip always involves a person who is not present.
• Unwelcome and negative gossip involved criticizing another person
• Gossip often is about conjecture that can injure another person’s credibility, reputation.
The person below agrees to the following:
In order to have a more professional, gossip free workplace I will:
1. Not speak or insinuate another person’s name when that person is not present unless it is to compliment or reference regarding work matters.
2. Refuse to participate when another mentions a person who is not present in a negative light. I will change the subject or tell them I have agreed not to talk about another.
3. Choose not to respond to negative email or use email to pass on private or derogatory information about any person in the group.
4. While off the job, speak to another co-worker about people at work in a derogatory light. If I have feelings, I will select to talk to someone not at the workplace.
5. If another person in the department does something unethical, incorrect, against procedures, or disruptive I will use the proper channels to report this to the person in authority to take corrective action.
6. I will mind my own business, do good work, be a professional adult and expect the same from others.
i hate gossips...!! (do I)
gossip.. gossip...hmmm, everyone's spice of life. can't stop it.
This is like a new year's resolution that nobody can keep. It's better not to swear at all than to swear it and break it. I have learned that where ever we go, there will always be the good and the bad. And it is always the person's choice which side he will take. But the fear of God really helps the person make the right decisions.
Your such a righteous individual....Im proud of you.....Mabuhay ka!
This is Golden Rule...-:)
