4. Integrity (Honesty and Dependability)

 ✓
Integrity comes in many forms, but honesty and dependability are two
traits that are expected in most workplace situations. Without responsible
behavior, distrust can make a work environment tense and uncomfortable.
A strong work ethic shows co-workers and clients that you're reliable and
take your responsibilities seriously. Polite communication, respectable
behavior and fiscal responsibility also help you stand out as a trustworthy
employee.

✓
Work When You're on the Clock

Working diligently when you're on the clock is a clear example of

workplace integrity. Socializing, surfing the Internet, making personal
phone calls, texting and frequent snacking are activities that detract from
work time. Saving those activities for break time will show your boss, co-
workers and customers that you work hard when you're on the clock. The
ccompany recommends honoring your work hours by not stealing time
from your employer. Even if you don't actually clock in and out with a
time card, focusing on your work responsibilities while you're at your
desk, work station or production area will showcase your strong work
habits.
✓
Follow Company Policies

Abiding by company policies is a powerful way to demonstrate integrity.

Cutting corners and neglecting to follow workplace regulations can lead to
mistakes, problems and even dangerous situations. Your willingness to
properly record financial transactions, safely dispense of hazardous or
toxic materials, follow company protocol for dealing with clients, perform
clean-up or set-up procedures and properly maintain equipment shows
others that you're not just looking for the easy way out. Establishing
yourself as a trustworthy worker who submits to company policies shows
your boss and co-workers that you'll faithfully carry out your duties.
✓
Respect Co-workers and Build Trust

Respecting those you work with reveals your desire to create a healthy work
environment. Polite communication, appropriate interactions and respect for
co-workers' thoughts and ideas demonstrate your ability to look beyond your
own interests to pursue team-centered work goals. As you deal with co-
workers honestly and respectfully, you establish a level of trust with them.
Further, those who trust you will spread the word of that trust to their
associates, and word of your character will spread like wildfire.

✓
Exhibit Responsible Behavior

Integrity in the workplace often stems from moral and ethical behavior.
Making sure there's no reason to question your conduct is one of the best
ways to prove that you are an honest and dependable employee. Avoid using
company products or equipment for personal use and submit exact receipts
for travel or meal reimbursements. Don't over-promise what you can't
provide and strive to meet deadlines. Work productively and cooperate
during company meetings so you don't appear lazy or apathetic, and don't
call in sick if you aren't. By exhibiting responsible behavior, you don't give co-
workers or clients the opportunity to question your integrity.
