Hi Dude,

No need to be scared, you need to follow these points:

1. Show a notice on the notice board: "DO NOT SPIT in the Office Premises. If found, the company will impose a fine on you."
2. Install CCTV Cameras.
3. Install Spittoons.
4. Conduct a group meeting every week to raise awareness of cleanliness in the organization and company goals.
5. Also, post some slogans.

These points above may help you cope with this kind of problem.

Yes, as said by Arunbansal007, the best idea is to draw some holy pictures on the walls. In schools and temple compound walls, the management does like that only to avoid urination and spoiling by pasting notices. This will work out surely.

Hi all,

Suppose an employee has a habit of spitting on the office walls, would the above advice be useful? Additionally, in office premises, you cannot place holy pictures in more than one location.

Secondly, holy pictures cannot be placed inside the bathroom as this could hurt the sentiments of every employee.

Without getting walls painted with holy pictures(it cant be painted everywhere)..I am sure there should be a simple & unique solution to change bad habits of your employees..... With profound regards

Long ago, I had read that the Kolkata underground system was the pride of the city. So, I checked the web to see if it was still like that (no spitting of paan, etc). To my surprise, the problem exists but not to the extent it happens on the buses, etc. Please see Kolkata Metro Updates - Page 184 - SkyscraperCity.

If you know who the culprits are making them clean up the mess and paint may deter them from reoffending. Have a nice day.

First of all, ban the Panmasala/Gutka/Cigarettes inside the office premises, since it could help to improve the health conditions of the employees rather than pasting holy pictures.

First of all, try to find the solution from scratch where the problem starts. So, ban Pan items, etc., so that there is no need to advise/paste holy things.

Create awareness among the employees about intake of Pan and its side effects. At least in working hours, they won't take these, and it will be really helpful to improve their health conditions.

Yes, we can ban the pan masala during office hours, but the situation remains the same because we are dealing with illiterate laborers. The best way to address this kind of problem, as I have mentioned before, is the right way to control the issue.
