Email and Internet Policy

Set the standards for online behaviour throughout your business

Explain your stance on the use of the internet and emails throughout your organisation.GFrom virus protection to internet usage and the acceptable and unacceptable use of internet and email systems whilst in work, this policy covers everything your employees need to know.

Why is it important to govern internet and email use in the workplace?

Having clear guidelines in place for internet and email usage helps protect your business from a range of risks, including data breaches, cyber threats, and misuse of company systems. By setting expectations around acceptable use, you reduce the likelihood of employees unintentionally exposing the organisation to security issues or reputational damage.

In addition, a well-defined policy supports productivity by minimising excessive personal use during working hours, while still allowing reasonable flexibility where appropriate.
