Greetings,
Does your firm follow the 'Bring your own device' Policy ? It is very effective and adds on to the employee's productivity as they have a choice to pick the MAC laptop or the Smart phone they wish to use officially.
However, this calls for an in-depth legal understanding to avoid every non-compliance later.
Here are few recommendations I found in a law journal. Please consider them while framing your policies. Additionally, please refer the laws applicable to your state/sector/firm :
To minimize privacy risks, employers must be clear on how dual devices can be used, convey those expectations and get the employees’ buy-in when possible. Taking the following actions can minimize an employer’s risk:

To minimize privacy risks, employers must be clear on how dual devices can be used, convey those expectations and get the employees’ buy-in when possible. Taking the following actions can minimize an employer’s risk:
- Draft clear and consistent policies that cover all technologies and servers used.
- Have employees who wish to use their personal devices at work sign requests granting them access to the company’s systems via their own personal smart phone, tablet or other comparable mobile device in connection with performing their responsibilities.
- Ask employees to confirm in writing that they acknowledge and agree that all information accessed through the company’s systems is confidential and remains the property of the company and can be wiped if lost or stolen.
- Confirm compliance with the company’s codes of legal and ethical business conduct and any policies the company has or will have in place regarding the conduct of its business and electronic communications.
- Get the employee to acknowledge that a violation of the agreement may result in a revocation of permission to use personal devices to access company systems and information and/or erasure or wiping of all data on mobile devices back to factory settings. Other concerns such as security breaches, wage and hour and safety implications merit their own discussion and provisions.
