You have to be very careful around them. Don't disclose any personal information when they are around because a poke nosing colleague is surely a gossip.

The bosses like these set of people a lot. That's because it is from them that they would get to know the inner workings of the organization. These poke nosing co workers know every other staff to their biros.

You know them , they are always looking at what others are doing to know about all of your business and every other staff business to their teeth to report back

If you know where you are going, you should not bother yourself with what people are saying about you. Concentrate on what you are doing and ignore them. Allow people to say whatever they think but do what you think is right.

That's the way to go it is yo focus and concentrate on what one is doing and ignore them. That's what they know how to do. Allow them to say whatever

First we need to ignore them if they cross certain level then we have to report in HR department because this type of people also hurt the reputation of an organisation they do not remain beneficial for the company.

Sure if you can just press the ignore button on them if you can't contain them then you have to report to the HR department you need to stsy away from them too

When you have identified a person as such what you have to do is to confront the person who partake in such shameful act and if you watch closely these type of people are usually sent as agent to watch what you do so I'll advice tolerance just get your work done 👍 and leave for that day dont compromise with them

It's better to just mind your business at work once you discover a co worker is of no help for you. All this people can even make you feel uncomfortable so it better you are on your own

I work with 30 womens. All of them are poke nosing. Maybe just one is not. I still didn't estimate her. It is not good situation for me since I don't ask personal questions and don't like be asked.

The course of action is to ignore them. They will not do anything for me good things. Although if they cross the lines, they will surely hear something from me or call their attentions.
Don't go violent on such people. As you already said, ignoring them would be the best bet. You just have to be discreet with your conversations in the office

The best thing to do to such people is to warn them or if possible you can ignore them. Ignoring them is even the best because it will not cause trouble in the business environment.

The poke nosey ones are those who regardless of whether ask for their opinion they will always want to get involved in anything that concern you so I say that you just look ahead of you and be focused on your job and never pay attention to them

Poke-nosy workers are losers and time comes nobody likes to be friends with them. In my workplace, there was a poke-nosy like but he was not liked by my boss and he was not promoted to a regular position and because of that, he resigned. We all felt happy.

Poke-nosing coworkers are always out there looking for those they can drag down with them it is not good to close to them if they would not stop such attitude

Poke nosy workers do not have calibers, they want attention getting because they lack skills. They like to become popular through their attitudes without knowing they are killing themselves in the wrong way.

This act is actually most common among women than is it to men. And this act actually lead to not disposing one duties well as the major concern and attention of such person will always be diverted at work.
