SAFFIRE LEGAL PC’s founder and principal attorney Teresa McQueen talks about Zoom Etiquette. COVID-19 has forced many employees to work from home, how they stay connected is Zoom. Teresa gives her tips on Zoom Etiquette for both employers and employees. 

* Use the video option when possible

* Don’t wear your pajamas

* Stage your video area

* Lighting is also very important and typically, more light is better

* Try to look into the camera

* Do your own tech support before you start

* Stay on mute if you’re not talking

* Don’t eat during the meeting

* Don’t do other private things while on a meeting

* Stay focused

* Limit your meetings to only those who really need to attend

* Finally, just like an in-person meeting, the host should be the last to leave
