Love your work! With most of us spending around a third of each day at work, we all deserve a job we love.
So, in the spirit of Valentine’s Day, we’ve put together some tips on how to get the most out of your time at work. We’re also providing some insight about what our staff love about being part of the Labourpower team.
5 TIPS TO HELP YOU LOVE YOUR JOB
-
Be clear about your role
You need to know exactly what’s expected of you in your job. Make sure that you clarify anything that you’re not sure about so that you can meet all expectations. Set yourself up for success by creating a to-do list to help you plan your day and always remember to focus on the task at hand.
-
Work smart
Workplace rules are there for a reason and not only keep you safe and fairly treated in your job but also help maintain a positive work environment. Familiarise yourself with all necessary HR policies and procedures, follow your company code of conduct and make sure you adhere to safe work practices at all times.
-
Keep a positive attitude
Work can be demanding and there’s nothing more uplifting than being around people who ooze positivity. Look for ways to play your part in creating a positive environment within your team. Contribute ideas, trust your colleagues, leverage your personal strengths, avoid gossip and stay optimistic in your conversations with others.
-
Make the most of opportunities
It’s important to make the most of all the opportunities that come your way. Sign-up for any training programs, keep up-to-date with latest news and policies, take part in company events and check out your company’s staff incentive schemes.
-
Build a supportive network
Surrounding yourself with like-minded people can help you stay inspired even when the going gets tough. Find a mentor, build a support network of people you can trust to give you the right advice (inside and outside the workplace). Value the groups you’re a part of including social and community groups, sporting teams, business associations and online networks via social channels such as LinkedIn, Facebook and Instagram.
