It has come to our attention that personal use of the Internet by some employees is interfering with productivity. In the next 90 days, Martin’s Office Supply will institute an Internet usage policy and install monitoring software to address this issue. Research shows that excessive personal Internet usage at work is a common problem that can lead to decreased productivity and potential security risks for the company. Implementing an Internet usage policy can help reduce the amount of time employees spend on personal internet use, and prevent harmful practices such as downloading unauthorized software or visiting inappropriate websites.
