Dear Aarti,
You belong to which state of India? I ask for this information because it is important to check whether Industrial Standing Orders Acts of your state covers IT/BPO companies as well. Govt of Karnataka has exempted IT/BPO companies from this act. What about your state?
If the Industrial Standing Orders are applicable to IT/BPO sector of your state then I recommend you formulating standing orders. Include the additional paragraph on data security, rules for data protection etc. Instead of separate policy, if you include security provisions in the standing orders itself, it will be easier for you to take action for misconduct arising out of breach of security. Since the standing orders are approved by labour commissioner, obviously these carry more weight than some policy.
Thanks,
