Dear aRia aDia,
When you seek some advice from seniors the basic requirement is to share your name, designation etc.
The problem of usage of company given mobile for the personal calls has come up because it appears that there is no policy on usage of mobiles. Have you made slabs for the usage of mobile phone? Higher the designation, higher the slab. If someone exceeds this slab, he/she will have to pay the excess amount or that amount will be deducted from the salary. There can be different slabs considering nature of work e.g. Purchase Manager because he/she has to constantly contact vendors for numerous issues.
Today our personal and professional life is blended and there is no watertight arrangement. Against this backdrop it is better to give some leeway to the employees but at the same time protect the interest of the company.
If you start issuing warning letters, it will demotivate the employees. Our job is to run the enterprise by providing goods or services of excellent quality. Our job is not to police on our employees.
Therefore, think it once again on issue of warning letter.
Thanks,
