WESSA Groen Sebenza Handbook 2021

Managing your time effectively and efficiently

It is worth your while to understand the organisational time management culture and try to align yourself where you can.

Be aware of these:

• What time does your colleagues arrive at the office and when do they leave? It could be awkward if you are always last in, first out. • Honour meeting times. Try to arrive at the venue 5 minutes before. Or log on 5 minutes earlier to pre-empt technical issues if meeting online. • How long is your lunch and teatime? Do your colleagues eat in breakroom or at their desk? • Are work schedules fixed or scheduled? How will you manage your work time? • Are you expected to be available after hours? How will this be compensated (Not only financially renumerated- good just be for recognition)
