What your employer expects from you?

Employers want people who:

• are reliable and dependable
• can do the job they're employed to do
• are self-motivated
• fit in to the workplace.

Your employer will expect you to:

• not miss too many days' work
• turn up to work on time
• earn your pay by doing a fair day's work
• follow instructions and accept suggestions
• obey occupational health and safety rules
• ask for help if you need it
• be interested in the job
• behave honestly and ethically
• look after company property
• dress in a way that suits the job
• behave well on the job so that people respect the company and staff. 

Work hard

When you're new to the job, your employer will keep an eye on how you work, and how well you get on with everyone.

Become productive in your job as soon as you can, and show that you're making an effort to settle in and get your job done well.

Make sure you know:

• what results your employer expects from you (sales targets, production quotas etc.)
• exactly what tasks you should be doing, in what order you should do them and how long you should take
• how well you're expected to complete each task.

Try to fit in

One of the major reasons an employee loses their job is because they don't fit in. Even if you work wonderfully, if you don't get on with anyone at work your employer won't be happy.

You want to keep your job, but, more importantly, you want to be feel comfortable and accepted at work. So try to get the balance right; perform well and become part of the workplace team.
