Post COVID Office Etiquette You Need To Know

There is some post-COVID office etiquette you need to know if you plan to return to your office soon.

To begin with, gone are the days when chatting closely around the water cooler was the norm. Or high-fiving someone in the hallway. Anyone who works in an office now is mindful of social distancing and limiting contact to keep themselves and their co-workers safe.

Not sure what behaviors are okay and what habits are better left in pre-pandemic times?

In short, here are some post-COVID office etiquette rules to keep in mind.  It was an honor to be the contributing “etiquette expert” for this story that ran in Go.BankingRates.com.  Thank you to @GabyOlya for reaching out to me!
