Bayard Buzz

Tuesday, June 06, 2006

Dan Smart and Dan Connors have asked that the following be posted on the blog.

Last Friday, someone in the company printed material of an inappropriate nature to the HP 5Si laser printer in Paul's production area. We presume this was done unintentionally, but civil employment law and company policy both require us to take this seriously. The company needs to show that it does not condone or tolerate such behavior in our workplace.

It is very important that we not abuse the email and internet access provided by the company. This certainly means not clicking through to pornographic web sites on company computers but it also means not using the internet to shop or play games during work hours (using the internet on your lunch hour is a matter to take up with your manager).

Full information on Bayard's policies on this topic can be found in the Employee Handbook. For now we call your attention to the following key paragraph on page 20. Please check with your manager if you have questions.

“The Company is committed to providing an environment where the use of e-mail and the Internet are essential tools for employees. Employees are encouraged to use e-mail and the Internet. However, it is the responsibility of the employee to guarantee that these systems are solely used for proper and professional purposes.”

Moving Day
Just a reminder that tomorrow we will be moving several offices around. Hopefully it won’t be too distracting for everyone.
