Do you take others into consideration while making calls in the office?

When the noise in an open plan office goes beyond appropriate levels, it can be annoying and stressful and thereby affects productivity.

Here are a few tips to help reduce noise in your workplace:

• Use headphones 🎧
• Use a reasonable voice level or soft voice
• Should you anticipate a long call, move into a private room or booth if you can
  • Close your booth/pod door (if there is one) while you’re in calls
• During the conversation, take notes of the important points to avoid unnecessary repetition

✅ Figure: Good example - A quiet workspace, with headphones used for calls
