Student paper down below:

Do you feel a policy restricting employee Internet use is ethically sound?

I feel that if an employee is doing research and spending a lot of time on non-work related tasks that there should be some sort of monitoring systems for employers. There are some employees that take advantage of the company’s assets and in those cases, the employer should have the right to limit those activities, especially if it is harming their productivity.

Do you feel that the monitoring of employee activity on the computer is ethically sound?

I feel that spot checks are necessary for the business to ensure that the employee is not downloading programs that could be a threat to the company. Employer’s need to be aware of those that are misusing the computer by sending unprofessional e-mails and surfing undesirable sites while at work. If this affects productivity or is offensive to others, it could become a hostile work environment (Schulman, 2000).

What are the business implications for employees’ personal use of company assets?

The implications for employees’ personal use of company assets could be that their productivity is down, the employee is not being a responsible individual and can create a security breach. The employer may become a victim of proprietary information being sent to the competition.

What approach will you take to address this issue with the jewelry company?

Internet searches can and will be monitored to ensure that the employees are not spending time looking up non-essential information, e-mails should always be professional while at the workplace and therefore, they can and will be monitored to ensure that the information in them is not offensive or derogatory. The use of an employer’s computer will be monitored and if there is anything that does not look right, then the employee will have a chance to explain and could be punished.The jewelry store will have a policy that directly states what can and cannot be done with the equipment, including e-mails and web surfing. The employees will know up front what the disciplinary actions will be and that they will be held accountable to these standards.

In conclusion, it is important for employees to feel that they are not being spied on the entire time they are at work, but it is also the employees’ responsibility to behave in a professional manner and remember where they are when using the company’s computers, internet and e-mails. Companies are able to monitor online activities and address those that may harm the company (Burks, 2019).
