Equipment Policy Session <br /> Speaker Tip Sheet <br /> There are several reasons we are asking supervisors to conduct the info <br /> sessions on the revised equipment policy. <br /> • This policy is important enough that we don't want to just send it by <br /> email and hope people read ft. <br /> • Without some discussion, employees may come up with questions or <br /> interpretations that never get discussed. It is important for there to be <br /> consistency and alignment on how this policy is implemented. <br /> • There have been a few significant changes and we want to be sure <br /> that all employees have the chance to hear about these and ask <br /> questions. <br /> Key points in talking about the new policy: <br /> • The HR Board, with consultation from work units around the organization, <br /> Information Services, HR, our Unions, and the Executives drafted and <br /> adopted the following policy. <br /> • With technology changing at such a rapid pace, we continue to attempt to <br /> keep our policies aligned with those changes. This revision is the result of <br /> our latest discussions on the topic of "City equipment use." <br /> • It is important that all employees understand how to manage their work <br /> time within the framework of this policy, so this is a great opportunity to <br /> ask questions. <br /> • There has actually been some expansion of the policy around personal <br /> use on paid breaks. We'II talk about that more, but this came from the <br /> consideration that we understand how challenging it is for all employees to <br /> manage work and personal time issues. It is critical that employees <br /> understand this framework so that everyone is able to respect the <br /> framework of the policy correctly. <br /> • Remember to be clear on your expectations around this policy. State the <br /> expectation clearly and supportively, assuming everyone is going to follow <br /> it. <br /> Framework for session: <br />
