CELLULAR TELEPHONE POLICY
I. PURPOSE & INTENT
• This policy is intended to define acceptable and unacceptable use of mobile telephones.
Its application is to insure that the use of public property is consistent with the best
interests of the City and its citizens, without unnecessary restriction of employees in
the conduct of their duties.
The intent of cellular telephones is to provide for versatility in dealing with unusual
or urgent circumstances, to maximize employee efficiency, to expedite conducting
business in working environments outside of the office, and to provide a public service
to citizens in special need.
II. POLICY GUIDELINES
Employees are encouraged to use the cellular telephones for a legitimate purpose.
Payment for telephone calls made consistent with the purpose and intent are the
responsibility of each individual department.
1. Personal Calls
a. Outgoin Calls:
On a limited basis, or as the need arises, an employee may be allowed to make
personal calls. These instances would include notifying someone of unexpected
.overtime, medical emergencies or other work-related matters. All personal calls must
be kept to a minimum length. The City must be reimbursed on a monthly basis for all
other personal calls.
b. Incoming Calls:
The employee has less discretion when responding to incoming calls. Incoming calls
are considered to be business calls until such time as the employee can make a
determination as to its purpose. If such a call is personal in nature and the
employee elects to continue the conversation, the employee is responsible for
reimbursement.
III. VERIFICATION
1. Verification will be made through the utilization of a cellular telephone log. This log
will be completed for all personal calls made or received and turned in to a designated
employee of the department involved on a daily basis. This log will record the
following information:
a. date
b. approximate time call placed/received
c. name of responsible employee
2. The Finance Department will be responsible for distributing copies of the telephone
billing. on a monthly basis to each department for verification and reimbursement for all
personal calls.
3. Proper use and care of City equipment must be taken to insure the security of a cellular
telephone (which may or .may not be portable). To that end, employees must keep their
vehicle locked when not in use.
4. Abuse or misuse of such telephones may be considered as grounds for disciplinary action
under the personnel policy and/or collective bargaining agreements.
