WORK IMMERSION 12 SY 2022-2023
WEEK 1
LEARN
Imagine you are an employer of a company. There are two applicants left after previous screenings. But you need only one to
fill in the vacant position. Whom are you going to choose? Is it the applicant with very good credentials besides being an honor
graduate, but during the interview, he appears to be arrogant as seen on his ways or actions; or is it the other applicant who is just an
ordinary graduate but seems to be humble and sincere as what is projected in the interview?
Most of the time many choose the second applicant. He may not be as academically good as the other applicant but the way
he answers during the interview revealed his character; the interviewer considers much the attitude. That’s why, your attitude towards
work is very important which is about our lesson for today, Work Ethics.
Work Ethics is a group of moral principles, standards of behavior, or set of values regarding proper conduct in the workplace.
Some of you after graduation, you might prefer to work right away or others after college they will go on work. During this
Work Immersion, you will be deployed in a certain institution or company. It is necessary to know if your actions conform to the work
ethics. You can ask yourself: Do I show respect to everyone in the workplace? Am I becoming rude to others? or Did I tell the truth
about the problem?
There are many instances or stories you heard about employees being fired from a job or work. What could be the reasons?
These are some of them:
1. Noncompliance with the rules and regulations
2. Harassment to fellow employees
3. Theft or stealing
4. Utterance of offensive language
5. Negligence of the responsibility
6. Troublemakers or frequent cause of conflict
7. Grievous offenses
What are the common Work Ethics that you as an employee should remember?
A. For attendance
a. Be on time or 10-15 minutes before the time.
b. Don’t abuse leave time.
c. Avoid absences without valid and important reasons.
B. Character
1. Honesty- An honest employee fosters good reputation to an organization. So be honest by telling the truth at all times and never
attempt stealing nor theft, just like a tricycle driver who returned the lost money and gadget to the owner.
2. Punctuality- You need to submit your work early or on time. Always come to your work 15 minutes before the time.
3. Integrity and Loyalty- Never disclose nor reveal nor share confidential matters. You must be trustworthy so that people will rely and
trust you.
4. Teamwork- Be a good team player with your colleagues in a workplace. Always help one another to achieve more.
6. Productivity- You have to accomplish more within the stipulated or specified time. Never use your time for doing nonsense things
like chatting, gossiping, texting, etc.
7. Reliability- It is a quality of being able to be trusted or believed because of working or behaving well. Your employer trusts you that
you can do your own work without so much supervision. You can also be asked for help at times your employer and your co-worker.
8. Commitment to Excellence- You do not only work just for compliance but you work hard to produce the best output or best quality.
9. Professionalism- It is more than just how you look but it’s a way of speaking, behaving and even thinking that helps a person to be
successful in the workplace. You must know how to follow all workplace rules. You also know how to admit if you made a mistake and
learn from it. Ask for help if you’re not sure how to handle a situation. Language is an important aspect of communication whether you
are talking with a co-worker in the privacy of your own office or to a customer. Practice using language that is appropriate for the
workplace in your everyday conversations so that you get into the habit of sounding professional. Lastly, always dress up appropriately.
10. Attitude- Many always look for an employee with right attitude. To be a better employee, you must listen to suggestions. Be
positive on different challenges. You also accept responsibility entrusted to you and admit your own mistakes if ever you commit one.
Respect everyone in the workplace. Respect begets respect.
