Dear All,

This is regarding the lap top top policy that are being discusseed in this forum.

The concept and main objective of whole set of procedures and regulations is to use technology and prevent misuse under normal circumstances involving people and materials in any organisation.

The policy should have the do's and don'ts specifically.

1. The usage lap top policy in holidays and while on long leave.
2. The measures adopted for claiming damage to the parts of the instrument during accident or wear and tear.
3. The detailed procedures to take or bring in the lap top computer inside the office during the holidays.
4. The security documents, papers and registers to be maintained in the security department.
5. The security measures followed for the outsiders when they bring in the lap top for legitimate purpose.
6. The preventive measures to be followed for the employees who are regulars.
7. The steps to prevent and regulate the usage of the lap top by the people especially outsourced who are to be there for a short period only; e.g project related staff whose presence is essential.
8. The detailed steps to retrieve the lap top when lost during transit.
9. The detailed procedures to follow when it is alleged to have been stolen or lost under the indifferent circumstances.
10. Measures to adopt when some highly respected employee whatever may be the title resigns suddenly or with notice.
12. HR intervention when the loss is due to wilful neglience of the employees.
13. Steps to protect the sensitive inormation/designs/formulas/pattern when they are stored and accessed through the lap top.

In my experience the lop policy will find it's loopholes and lapses only when there is a reported damage or loss to the company.

Take care of this too.

Bye.
