Workplace policy is a formal policy created by the management / business owners in order to set clear restrictions, protecting both employees and employers. Workplace policy covers more topics like: rate of pay, discrimination, abuse within workplace, employee rights etc. To avoid misunderstandings and malpractice within the company it is very important to have a clear and complete policy. On the other hand, employees should read these policies carefully because sometimes these policies can be sneaky and if there is something that looks suspicious, they should ask for more details.
Now, in regard to employee monitoring, this issue should definitely have a complete section into the workplace policy. Continue reading ‘Avoid employee rights violation with workplace policy’
It happens sometimes that you need to hear a good word from someone or you need to be encouraged in order to fulfill your activity. At work, at home, and everywhere in between, motivation can be used to get good results and to get all things to an end.
From the different types of motivation, self-motivation is the most difficult, but if you are willing to work hard, then results will be seen without delay. Motivation will step-up your work productivity and will inspire you to get your job done. The thing is that people lack motivation especially at work because their place is not there, they are not fulfilled or because they don’t feel they are good enough. That’s why is important to discover something in your work that will inspire and will motivate yourself. I’ve selected some great quotes that can be used for strengthening our will and for self-motivation:
“Difficulties are meant to rouse, not discourage. The human spirit is to grow strong by conflict.†~William E. Channing~ Continue reading ‘Self-motivation – the best cure for getting things done’
I‘ve read many articles lately on how to give up on your coffee habit, how coffee can decrease productivity etc. I’m not a scientist to say this is true or not, but I had so many experiences that now I stopped believing everything I read or see. It’s important to take only the right and good information and to adapt it to your situation.
Based on some study, companies were advised to limit how much coffee and tea employees are drinking during working hours. In the study was mentioned that drinking 350mg of caffeine can cause lapses in concentration and increased stress. Just to make an idea, it is considered that an average cup of coffee contains about 100mg of caffeine. Continue reading ‘Do we really have to give up on coffee to increase productivity?’

There is one month left till the 40th Anniversary of Earth Day. In this period a wide range of environmental events take place more that the rest of the year. These events are organized by both non-profit organizations and commercial companies which all mean to save the planet and to educate people in this respect.

Many educational institutions have problems in managing their budget. There are so many fields and activities that require significant parts of the budget that schools often face difficult situations when it comes for allocating resources. In this case, reducing cost has become a common issue for schools as well.
First thing to do when improving school budget is desired is to monitor every field and activity and try to reduce corresponding spending. And costs associated with printing activities are a considerable field that can be controlled and where significant funds can be saved.
Let?s face it, if students can print unlimited number of pages (with their favorite music star or their favorite soccer team) they will do it. And when other school activities have to suffer because of budget limitations, this is getting unfair. Continue reading ‘Save school budget by controlling printer’s usage’

Is your productivity slipping for one reason or another? From time to time you may feel like you are not as productive as you were in the past ? this is quite common. Although common, you do not want this to last too long. If it does, many days or weeks (or longer) may go by without you getting your work done.
The million dollar question is: how can I get back on track if my productivity begins to slip? Everybody is different, but here are three things you should consider:
1. Go back to what has worked in the past. For instance, maybe you were working longer days in the past but recently decided to cut back. If this has led to less productivity on the job, you need to go back to your old ways for the time being. There is nothing you can do that cannot be undone in the future.
2. Know what changed. As noted above, any change could lead to less productivity which can turn into subsequent issues. If you know what you changed you can then do one of two things: tweak your new plan, or as mentioned in tip number one, scrap it altogether and go back to the way that things used to be.
