A few tips for employees regarding Internet and cell phone use:- Remember that anything you do on a company-issued computer or cell phone - in or out of the office - could be tracked by a boss, the courts or a regulator. Many employers monitor Web site use, keystrokes, instant messages and e-mail. Some even archive text messages on work cell phones.
- Avoid mentioning your company, boss or co-workers in online postings unless you have permission to do so.
- Avoid using any device to take or transmit any company-related photos, videos or other recordings without permission from management. This includes any images of company buildings or logos and embarrassing or unprofessional photos of co-workers or clients.
- Know your company's policy on social networking, video Web sites, e-mail and other tech-related activities.
- Regularly delete personal e-mail from your work account.
- Remember when searching for a job that many employers check social networking sites, blogs and other online activity.
