26WHAT EMPLOYERS EXPECT
YOUR EMPLOYER WILL EXPECT YOU TO:
Be punctual-someone who always arrives at work on time.
Take care of your personal appearance.
Be keen about the work. Show an interest in the job and in the business.
Be prepared to do a job well and perform all duties carefully.
Volunteer to perform duties which you know you can do well.
Expect no favors from your employer.
Find out when the tea breaks are and the length of the break and always be back on
time.
Make notes about what you have to do if you are given a number of tasks at once.
Ask questions about the job, the business and the industry.
Be careful using machinery. Don’t use any machinery which requires a special license if
you don’t have a license. Make sure you understand exactly how to use a machine
before you begin, and never use a machine unsupervised.
Be discreet. If you overhear or see anything private or confidential even by accident,
keep it to yourself. Never pass on any unfavorable comments about other workers. If
you feel uncomfortable about something, talk to your careers advisor/YouthNow
learning coordinator or to your employer.
Be prepared to do small tasks before expecting anything major. Don’t expect too
much. Most people will expect you to show your abilities in fairly small tasks before
giving you a more complicated job.
Work without distracting other employees.
Be prepared to act as an observer sometimes and watch what is going on. But don’t use
this as a way of getting out of something else you should be doing.
Be positive. A positive attitude is the best thing you can take with you to your work
experience. Your employer is spending time and money to help you. They will
appreciate it if you make a positive contribution.
Follow the guidelines in this booklet and those recommended by your employer.
Smile and enjoy yourself!
The more you put into your work experience – The more you will get out of it!
