Do you have work-related questions, from how to deal with difficult colleagues and big workloads, to career progression and remote working, and everything in between. If so, we’d like to hear from you.
For many of us our work occupies a large proportion of our time and can have a significant impact on our happiness, sense of accomplishment and levels of stress.
Staff have to navigate various workplace challenges and issues, from difficult colleagues, to unrealistic workloads, shifting rules around etiquette, all while trying to progress and
Employers and managers equally face challenges, albeit different ones to employees, as many workplaces adopt versions of hybrid working, more informal workplace cultures and changes in workplace expectations.
The arrival of Generation Z (people born between 1997 and 2012) into the workplace also promises significant changes, particularly around how management functions and mental health.
To try and explore some of these issues and offer a perspective on workplace dilemmas the Irish Times has started a new Q&A column answering your work queries.
We have assembled a panel of experts in human resources, employment law, career progression and coaching, management consultants, tax advisers and personal finance and each week they will discuss one reader query and offer a professional perspective.
The column will cover everything in the messy world of work from tricky colleagues and unpleasant bosses, how to have difficult conversations, how to move jobs or change careers, the financial implications of working less (or more) and how to “build your brand” within your company and externally in a way that does not make your toes curl.
You can use the form below to submit your question. Please limit your submissions to 400 words or less and please include a phone number.
Your name and contact details will be confidential and only be used for verification purposes. Any details about your employer will also be anonymised.
Please note we may not publish a response to every submission we receive.
This column is not intended to replace professional advice and only questions selected for publication can be answered.
