OFFICE PROCEDURES

DAILY PROCEDURES

UPON ARRIVING TO WORK

A Professional Atmosphere is
Accomplished Through
Professional Employees
This is what your day will look like in Company:
1. Sign in at the designated area for your
attendance each day. You may only sign
in for yourself, and you must do so before
the bell rings. You are also not permitted
to clock in and leave the office and then
return after the bell and expect to be on
time.

Be prepared for deadlines and have all

materials ready that you may need. This
includes your passes, notebook, and
writing utensil.

Be prepared for any kind of work day at

company, which can be very
unpredictable. You may have a lastminute guest speaker, a pop quiz, special
event, special assignment, or a visitor. Be
sure to deal with whatever may come
your way professionally and maturely.

EMERGENCIES

2. You will keep all of your important

information about Company in your
notebook. You will need it every day.

Time is of the essence. You should not leave work

unless it is an absolute emergency. Employees are
only permitted to leave the office if they have a
signed planner from the director.

3. Log on to your computer and check your

workstation to make sure nothing is
missing or damaged. Report any problems
to your Director immediately. Prepare
your workstation for a productive day and
place all book bag and purses IN THE
DESIGNATED AREA.

Be sure to bring your planner to the office each

day. Without it you cannot leave Company.

Remember:
The director does not have to be
present to tell you to begin
working.

4. Start to Work! Be at your assigned

workstation as soon as possible and begin
working on your modules or projects.

OFFICE ETHICS

PLAGIARISM
Plagiarism is taking someone elses ideas, words,
or images and submitting them as your own work.
Plagiarism is cheating.

Respect employees and the director;

therefore, neither profanity nor abusive
language will be tolerated.
Employees are not permitted to use the
office phone unless approved by a
director.
It is not appropriate to play computer or
on-line games during working hours. Any
employee abusing this policy will be
required to sit in the conference area
rather than at the computer station and
parental contact.
It is up to you to use your time each day
to the fullest.
It is very unprofessional to wander
around the office and to sit on your
workstation.

If you turn in any assignment that is not your own

work, by either copying/pasting information from
the Internet or actually turning in someone elses
work, you will be held to the schools discipline
policy on cheating.

ATTENDANCE POLICY
An employee should always be at work (in class)
unless he/she has an extreme illness or a family
emergency. ELITE Inc. is a company, and each
employee has daily responsibilities which make
attendance important. Appointments and
personal commitments should not be scheduled
during company time. Employees will be
expected to be at work daily in order to keep up
with assignments.

This is an office, you are expected to give your

company and director 110% productivity your
entire shift! If you finish the required work for
your department, you are encouraged to continue
on to the next module as some modules may take
more than one week to complete.

Employees are encouraged to spend alternative

time in the lab to make up for absences and to
keep up with the work if they fall behind. The
employee must make arrangements with the
director, Ms. Valle.
Attendance will be taken from the sign-in book. If
you do not sign in, you WILL be counted as
absent!

The Directors office/area and the items in them

are off limits to all Company employees. Do not
enter these areas unless asked to by the director.

TARDY POLICY
Punctuality as well as attendance is important. It
is imperative, therefore, that employees develop
the habit of arriving to work on time and being
prepared to start work immediately.

FOOD/DRINKS
No food or drink is allowed in the computer area.
You may place your drinks at the counter. Any
food or drink found in the computer area will be
confiscated!

If you are not in the office and signed in before

the tardy bell rings, you will be considered tardy
and appropriate measures will be taken according
to school policy. You can NOT clock in, leave the
office, and return after the bell rings and expect
to be on time.

TURNING IN MODULES
Every student will receive individualize instruction with realistic goals. It is important to keep up with your
work and not fall behind!
Each module has a cover sheet that you will need to open and complete each day you complete a task. This
sheet should be left open on your desktop as you work through the module. It is important that you
carefully read each cover sheet, as the directions may change from each module. This sheet will tell you
what you need to turn in and what needs to be printed.
Once you have completed each step of the module. Double check everything for completeness points will
be deducted for resubmission! Be sure that you have the cover sheet completely filled out; including signing
your name to verify it is your work! Turn your module into your departments inbox.
Any modules that are not correct will be returned to you for correction. Make sure you always turn in your
best work as time that is needed to correct modules is time lost on your current weeks work! THUS, USE
CLASS TIME WISELY.

CLOSING OF THE OFFICE

We may have visitors at any time, and we want the office to be presentable at all times. This is your office;
take pride in how it looks. Always leave your work area cleaner than the way you found it. Clean up your
work area at the end of your shift by removing all papers and scraps from your station and the floor around
you. Put all materials in their proper place. Log out of your computer and push your chair completely under
the station.

Employees must stay at their desk until the bell rings for dismissal.
ADDITIONAL COMPUTER TIME
If you feel you are falling behind or do not understand any new material, speak with your director
immediately. Your Director (Ms. Valle) will arrange after school tutoring for anyone needing
additional help.

PROFESSIONAL BEHAVIOR
Professional behavior will be expected from all employees at all times. Since a companys
success depends on the ethical behavior of its employees, any unprofessional/unethical behavior
cannot and will not be tolerated. Examples of unwarranted behavior include:
Cheating/Plagiarism Stealing Disrespect toward director and other employees
Inappropriate language Sexual harassment Misuse of technology Misuse of company
resources Wasting company time Any breech of ethical behavior in this company will result in
an employee conference with the director, parental contact, and/or administrative referral.
