There aren’t standard work hours but people are usually trying to get work done between 8:30a to 5pm.

People should be able to focus on their jobs or other projects during these hours.

Keep things relatively calm and quiet.

Help other people focus when they have to.

Notice when people need to focus and look out for them. If you notice people being too loud or distracting, let them know.

Everyone is ultimately responsible for protecting their focus. Bring headphones or earbuds just in case.

Headsets for calls work really well.

If someone is talking way too loud in their meeting, feel free to let them know. It’s easy to think you have to talk louder when you’re wearing headphones, or when the people you’re talking to are thousands of miles away, but you can usually talk quietly in a call and be heard just as well. Feel free to remind others and yourself of this.

Be okay with communicating when you need to focus. Be okay with asking people to quiet down if they’re being too loud.

It is okay to take calls in the main area. If you’d like, you’re free to take meetings or calls in the conference room if it’s available.
