Resolving office conflicts and creating a harmonious workplace is one of the main responsibilities for HR professionals. However, some of the behaviours are not only annoying, but also affecting the office morale and even causing colleagues to lose their marbles.

A recent post on Heawork listed out the most annoying behaviours in workplace according HR professionals.

1. Nail clipping in office

Clipping fingernails, and even toenails in the office is voted as the most annoying and disgusting behaviours in workplace. It is all about personal hygiene. Save it for home.

2. Do not flush the toilet after using it

Another personal hygiene problem. Shouldn’t you expect the one after you to do it for you?
