Dear HR,
I would like to address the issue of employees using cell phones and internet on work time. Do you have any suggestions on rules or verbiage to include?
Answer:
We would advise adding cell phone and internet use policies and expectations to your employee handbook including outlining:
- Electronic Assets Usage – with specific guidelines on appropriate work related internet and email use
- Social Media – outlining how and when your brand should be shared on social media outlets including following conduct, anti-harassment & anti-bullying guidelines
Looking for more specifics? Talk to Cardinal Services about reviewing your existing or customizing an employee handbook for you.
