Bathroom Rules & Etiquettes to be followed at Your Workplace

Some people may not be aware that there is a bathroom etiquette which should be followed particularly when using the one in office. This blog is all about bathroom etiquettes which is important in our daily life.

Anywhere we visit there are certain etiquettes relevant to that particular setting. Among all, workplace etiquette is the most vital one as you are going to leave an impression on your colleagues. Remember that the world is always judging you and of course you don’t want them to develop wrong impression about you. Here are some important bathroom etiquettes that should be followed to maintain cleanliness and hygiene.

•    There should always be a clean approach when it comes to washroom i.e. you should have the practice of washing and wiping your hands after using the toilet. You yourself would not like someone not cleaning their hands after using the toilet and coming to you for shaking hands.

•    The most important etiquette is to not talk about business and work matters in the restroom. Save the business talk to be discussed in the conference room or in your cabin.

•    Before entering into the stall, just peek to see if there’s anyone inside. Don’t simply barge in. Moreover, while using the bathroom, it is very important to flush. Even you would not like to use a dirty commode which is not flushed.

•    Always leave BOTH the toilet seat and cover down when not using the commode. This applies to both men and women, whether at home and in public facilities.

•    Before leaving the toilet make sure that it is clean enough for others to use. In case any toiletries are unavailable, make sure to report it to the concerned person who looks after the maintenance.

•    Never use the last sheet of bathroom tissue without informing the host. Better yet, a host should leave extra rolls in the room for guests to access as needed.

•    Bathroom etiquettes should also be followed elsewhere. Remember to be respectful of a person's home. Do not rummage around for items you may want, such as aspirin. Instead, always ask the host to assist you.

BONUS TIP: When placing a new roll of bathroom tissue in its holder, the tissues are to be unrolled from over the top, so the end hangs in front of the roll, not behind.
