I see more and more of these things at work, they always address an issue but never really offer much substance, it's more a glorified "DO THIS" or "DON'T DO THIS"
Here are a few that have grace our walls lately:
- A reminder of our customer service policies after increasing reports of "Rude" notations on our QA reports (when our calls are listened to and critiqued)
- A notice about center security saying that no one without a pass is to be let into the center and any employee who does not have pass must be identified by their supervisor before being let in the building.
and my favourite
- A notice that we are not to come to work under the influence of drugs or alcohol, write notes RELATED to drugs or alcohol or even DISCUSS drugs or alcohol at work and that even someone only TALKING about drugs can now be fired immediately for doing so.
These notices were never discussed with us, just plastered all over the center for us to follow. Most are long winded corp speak, the versions above are pretty much the point of each one. The drugs one in particular makes me laugh because it seems like such a knee jerk respsonse to one or two idiots talking about weed on their break or something.
