Abstract
The column addresses how a practice owner can support staff who wish to vote in person during a busy workday while maintaining a respectful and productive work environment. Suggestions include offering flexible scheduling or paid time off to allow voting, along with proactive communication to understand staff needs. It also highlights the importance of setting clear boundaries for political discussions in the office to prevent disruptions and maintain a respectful atmosphere. Emphasizing civility, respect, and patient care, the column advises discussing these expectations with staff to avoid conflicts.
