3.11 EQUIPMENT USAGE POLICY
Computer
Each employee is responsible for maintaining cleanliness on his personal computer. To maintain this, the computers and printers need to be covered after the use. The employee should make sure that the computers are properly shut down and are covered. Negligence in such act is highly shameful and here we do not want to declare any penalty or punishment as we would not like to make this training
Use of printer
Printers are not to be used for personal prints, because misuse of such act may create a loss to the organization. If an employee has some urgent requirement he may ask permission from his hierarchy and do if the permission is granted. Before leaving the office for the day, kindly make sure the printer is switched off.
Photocopy
Proper use & misuse there is no discrepancy. If the need arise to take any personal print/Xerox please take permission of your HOD. In case of emergency, please don’t shy and use the equipment with the permission of HOD. It becomes a case of accountability and it is not the management intension to restrict for every general usage of equipment.
Telephone use
Telephones are intended for the use of serving our customers and in conducting the company’s business.
Personal usage of the telephone is discouraged except for extreme emergency or very important work. All personal telephone calls should be kept brief to avoid congestion on the telephone line. In case, if you need to make any personal calls, you require giving the number to reception and the call will be connected through reception center only.

Employees who are provided Internet connection should use the facility for the development of the organization and not for utility purpose.
Each employee should be aware that computer in the company are LAN connected and so surfing of any site other than the recommended and informed by the management to the Internet users should not be opened.
