the essence

The essence of phone, email, and internet policy outlines the acceptable use of company-provided communication technology. It may include guidelines on personal use, confidentiality, and data security. The policy should also specify the consequences of violating the rules and ensure that employees know their responsibility to use these technologies professionally and appropriately.

Instructions for utilising communication technology appropriately

Best Practices

Use of phone, email and internet policy

# One

Cisco has a “trust but verify” policy that allows employees to use personal devices to access company data, but the company uses monitoring software to ensure compliance with security policies. Additionally, employees must complete regular security training and sign an acceptable use policy.

# Two

HCL Technologies has a well-defined policy on the use of phones, email, and the internet. The policy includes guidelines on the appropriate use of electronic communication devices and social media. HCL Technologies has also implemented technical controls to monitor and manage electronic communication devices and to prevent unauthorized access to confidential data.

Estimating the internet size at 5 million terabytes, YouTube host Vsauce concluded that all that data would weigh about 50 grams (again, not counting the energy required to deliver that data). That's almost the same weight as a strawberry

Three steps to success

We Help You Every Step Of The Way

Let’s face it! HR Policies need to be designed keeping the industry sector, business requirement and the needs of the workforce in mind. A one size fits all approach does not work when it comes to writing a number of policies.

On the other hand, labour laws require that companies adhere to various statutory compliances, but are difficult for the lay person to comprehend. Why stress over them. Leave the heavy lifting to us!
