Work Place Etiquette & ProtocolsALINTA ENERGY
WORKPLACE ETIQUETTE & PROTOCOLS
Working in an open plan office requires the exercise of respect and tolerance by all. These protocols are supportive of a working environment incorporating courtesy,
consideration and sensitivity to others.
Teamwork across boundaries helps us to more effectively meet our customer needs.
Safety Individuals are responsible for their own safety, the safety of colleagues, and that of
all hosted visitors. Health or safety risks should be immediately advised to a Manager or a member of the Safety Committee.
Hosts should not leave the building while their guests remain – without clearly transferring the hosting role to a colleague.
Workstations Secure confidential information when your desk is unattended, including locking
your PC with the screen saver. Use appropriate phone ring tones and volumes and make teleconference and
speaker phone calls from meeting/quiet rooms. Be aware of your own noise levels and behaviours – a bit of fun is ok, ongoing high
noise is disruptive to others. Lengthy, sensitive, confidential or personal conversations should be taken away
from the open plan area and into a quiet room. Utilise offsite storage where necessary.
Work Place Etiquette & Protocols (…./cont)Meeting and Quiet Rooms Meeting rooms on level 9 can be booked using the Outlook calendar booking
system. Meeting rooms on level 6 can be booked by phoning Westnet corporate reception on 08 6213 7000.
Please ensure meetings start and finish on time, and if the meeting runs over time, leave promptly when the next person arrives.
Use quiet rooms for short or impromptu meetings and conversations that should be taken away from the desk and open plan area. Quiet rooms are not able to be booked.
Select and book the most appropriate meeting room based on the number of participants expected and facilities required.
Clean up after the meeting – leave the room clean and tidy for others. If the meeting is cancelled, update the booking system. Participation and discussion in meetings should be courteous and respectful of
others.
Staff Breakout and Tea Preparation Rooms The staff breakout room is a good place to take your lunch break, socialise with
other colleagues and to take a break from work. Please leave all shared areas clean and tidy after use. Remove any food items
after you have finished with them and place dishes in the dishwashers provided.
Work Place Etiquette & Protocols (…./cont)
Utility and Print Rooms All printing should be collected from the utility and print rooms as soon as it is
printed. Uncollected faxes and print outs should be placed in the relevant trays ready for
