4 Minimising personal email (friends and family)
Although there are many surveys about the volume of spam and amount of time spent pro-
cessing email at work, there is relatively little data published on the amount of time spent
writing personal emails. To minimise this problem and some of the problems of over- using
email for business use, the following steps can be taken:
1
Create written guidelines defining the policy on acceptable email use and disciplinary
procedures for when guidelines are breached.
2
Use increasing levels of control or sanctions for breaches including performance reviews,
verbal warnings, removal of email privileges, termination and legal action.
3
Providing training for staff on acceptable and efficient email use.
4
Monitor emails for signatures of personal use and any breaches of the policy, e.g. swear-
ing, and take action accordingly.
