Electronic Communication Policy

Elizabeth

Does anyone have or know of a good policy that covers all electronic communications within the company. This would include: phones (including cell phones), computers, software (downloading, copying and installing), email, Internet use, monitoring, personal use, etc....

I'm thinking I may not have to reinvent the wheel here. I bet there's a great policy already written.

Thanks.

Elizabeth,

E-mail me at [email]paulknoch@hotmail.com[/email] I have a sample policy that I would be willing to send you that is pretty comprehensive.

We also have an excellent Special Report on this topic (and I'm not just saying it is excellent because I wrote it) that covers all the issues that arise in an electronic workplace. It is called: How to Avoid the HR Hazards of Your Electronic Workplace. You can access it on teh web if you are a law center member, or you can order it on the web if you are not.
