Smoking
• Smoking is no more a “sophisticated” act.
• Smoke only in a “smoking zone”
• Don’t smoke if you don’t see an ashtray
• Smoking leaves a smell that may not be agreeable with
others in your office
• Do not say “Do you mind if I smoke?”. The opposite person
may resent it secretly

Behaviour

• Use “please” and “thank you”
• Do not gossip or cast aspersions on the moral character of
anyone.
• Practice office etiquette with your colleagues.
