at workplace

This phrase is not correct. Don't use it.

There needs to be a definite article before the noun "workspace."

Some alternatives from our editors:

  • at the workplace

in workplace

This phrase is not correct. Don't use it.

There needs to be a definite article ("the") before the noun "workplace."

Some alternatives from our editors:

  • in the workplace
Both of these phrases lack the article "the," which should be used before the noun "workplace."

When corrected, either of these phrases could be used to indicate you are talking about something that happens at work. Most often it is appropriate to use 'in' when you are talking about workplaces in general, and 'at' when you are talking about a specific workplace.

E.g.:

It is very important that we do not permit any forms of harassment in the workplace.

Employees are happier when there are clear rules of conduct in the workplace.

The employees were happy to see the new equipment installed at the workplace.

It can feel like a longer day if there is no natural lighting at the workplace.
