In foreign countries, such as Telstra, business halls all promote mobile phone etiquette by providing customers with "mobile phone etiquette" brochures.

What are the etiquette of using mobile phones in the workplace?

1, mobile phone placement

In all public places, when not in use, the mobile phone should be placed in a formal position that conforms to etiquette. Don't put it in your hand or hang it outside your coat pocket when not in use. The usual locations for placing mobile phones are as follows: first, in the briefcase you carry with you, this location is the most formal; The second one is in the inner pocket of the coat; Sometimes, you can temporarily put your mobile phone on your belt, or put it in an inconspicuous place, such as at hand, behind your back, or in your handbag, but don't put it on the table, especially not at the customers who are chatting opposite. Ladies should pay attention, no matter how beautiful and compact the mobile phone is, don't hang it around your neck.

2. Pay attention to the occasion when using mobile phones.

People who pay attention to the etiquette of using mobile phones will not answer their mobile phones in public places and landline phones, while driving, on airplanes, in theaters, in libraries and hospitals.

Don't use mobile phones in public places, especially stairs, elevators, intersections, sidewalks and other places. You should try to keep your voice down and never speak loudly.

In some occasions, such as libraries or theaters, it is extremely inappropriate to use mobile phones. If you have to answer, it is more appropriate to send a mobile phone message in a silent way.

3. Turn off the phone if necessary.

When negotiating with others in a meeting, the best way is to turn off the mobile phone, or at least turn it to a vibrating state, which can show respect for others without interrupting the speaker's thinking.

At the dinner table, it is also necessary to turn off the mobile phone or set it to vibrate. When you are in the mood, avoid being interrupted by annoying ringtones.

4. Before calling, consider whether it is convenient for the other party.

When calling the other party's mobile phone, especially knowing that the other party is a busy person in an important position, the first thing that comes to mind is, is it convenient for him or her to answer at this time? And be prepared that the other party is inconvenient to answer. When calling the other party's mobile phone, pay attention to the echo from the receiver and identify the other party's environment. If it is quiet, think of each other at the meeting. Sometimes a large venue can feel an empty echo. Hearing the noise, the other party is likely to be outdoors, and the rumble when driving can also be heard. With the preliminary appraisal, we can talk smoothly. But in any case, it is better for the other party to decide whether to talk or not, so "is it convenient to talk now?" It is usually the first question to call a mobile phone.

5. Don't use funny colored ringtones at work.

Mobile phones play an important role in the workplace, but some people often ignore the etiquette of using mobile phones, which is mainly reflected in the fact that mobile phones ring the bell regardless of occasions and answer the phone frequently when talking with people. In addition, inappropriate ringtone settings and ringtones will also make you rude. Civil servants, company managers, etc. Due to the nature of the position, it should give people a stable image.

Therefore, in the workplace, if the bell rings like "Dad, answer the phone" and "Wang, Wang", it is not only serious, but also inconsistent with your identity. Similarly, during work, if someone makes a cell phone call for business, but hears "I don't answer the phone, I don't answer the phone, I answer everyone else's phone, and I don't answer your phone." Such funny ringtones are also disgusting.

6. Matters needing attention in sending and receiving short messages

Don't read text messages when others can see you. Checking messages while talking to others is a sign of disrespect to others.

In the selection and editing of short messages, we should pay as much attention as calling for civilization. Because the short message you send means that you agree with or at least don't deny the content of the short message, and it also reflects your taste and level. So don't edit or forward unhealthy short messages, especially those that satirize great men, celebrities and even revolutionary martyrs, let alone forward them.

7. If you can call a landline, don't call a cell phone.

Don't use the company landline to make personal calls. In addition, try not to call a stranger's private mobile phone (except business sales, of course) without informing or making an appointment in advance, because we don't know whether the other party is convenient to answer your phone now, so this is also a etiquette skill that we need to pay attention to in the workplace and mobile phone use.
