Terry does not want her employees to be on their cell phones during work hours. She requires them to have their cell phones on mute and to remove themselves from the office for emergency phone calls. She believes that this is necessary in order to ensure the safety of the workplace, where machinery is in use and distractions may cause accidents. Describe the steps Terry should take in enforcing this policy.

What will be an ideal response?


Answers may include addressing the policy in the Employee Handbook and addressing cell phone usage in safety training. Enforcement, though not specifically identified in the reading, is also important as employees should be informed/reminded of policies and the rationale behind them.
