In this age of technology, email is the preferred and often most efficient form of communication, yet many organizations overlook putting a policy into place regarding the etiquette that should be followed by all staff.

Issues like bullying, sharing jokes and pictures and other inappropriate content should be highlighted with rules put into place about what is and what is not allowed when using internal or external email communication. You and your employees can benefit from learning about standard email etiquette by attending an Email Etiquette training course.

This Email Etiquette training course from PD Training provides participants the skills and techniques necessary for managing emails professionally, and writing emails with clarity and proper structures to avoid misinterpretations and miscommunication among staff and clients.

A new international workplace survey has found that 63% of Malaysians use email, Internet, or both while at work and most are convinced it makes them more productive.

The survey found that the use of online communications has extended across most of the workforce with only 9% using neither email nor Internet. 

The survey highlights the pervasive use of online tools in the workplace and there is little doubt that online technologies have transformed the way business operates. With this growing trend in modern business communication within Malaysia, the explosion of unnecessary and time-wasting emails was one of the biggest sources of complaint. Some 35% of workers said they received high levels of emails that were either time wasting or unnecessary. This evidently points to the volume of emails that are directed to people without a clear purpose.

In an increasingly knowledge-based economy, it is critical that information is widely accessible and able to be utilized effectively in the workplace. It is also vital that organizations develop policies to guide employees on the correct use of online communications. These should cover issues such as privacy, personal use, monitoring, downloading of content, access by third parties and illegal use of the Internet.
