Do you need a cell phone policy for your business?
Does your company have a cell phone or a “distracted driving” policy? Most employers today still haven’t quite gotten around to creating a cell phone policy, let alone a policy that addresses cell phone use while driving. In today’s fast paced, multi-tasking world, talking, texting, reading emails, etc. happens regularly. Here are some things to think about regarding cell phone usage best practices and policies in your organization.
Did you know?
- Talking on a hand-held cell phone while driving is banned in 9 states (California, Connecticut, Delaware, Maryland, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, Utah, and Washington) and the District of Columbia.
- The use of all cell phones by novice drivers is restricted in 30 states and the District of Columbia .
- Text messaging is banned for all drivers in 33 states and the District of Columbia.
Currently, in the state of Iowa, there is a grace period in place for texting tickets through the end of June 2011. The new law will ban all drivers from reading, writing or sending text messages or emails while operating a motor vehicle. In addition, novice drivers, mostly between the ages of 14-17 will be prohibited from using a cell phone while operating a motor vehicle. A person ticketed under the new law will face a fine of $100, although there would be a grace period on the fine from July 1st, 2010 – June 30th, 2011.
For more information on specific laws and restrictions in your area, click on the map below.
What can your company do?
- Include a cell phone policy in your employee handbook.
- Lead by example. It starts at the top. If the CEO adheres to company policies, a powerful message is sent to the rest of the organization
- Regularly review new policies and stress compliance with all company employees.
