The computer belongs to the company. Visit any sites you want (porn, gambling, violence etc are blocked). Every website you visit is recorded and the information can be used in any disciplinary action against the employee at the discretion of their manager or supervisor. In other words: We are watching :) On Thu, Oct 10, 2013 at 1:02 PM, Benjamin Tayehanpour <[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> > wrote: On 10 October 2013 10:18, Peter Huisman (SolarNow) <[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> > wrote: I know, sounds easier than it is, but implementing a firewall rule will not make employees more motivated (maybe even the opposite). This, times a million. Trying to cordon off the Internet is not only not very effective, but also has a social impact one may want to avoid. Employees will feel as though they are not trusted to fulfil their duties even if non-work-related sites are occasionally browsed. You might as well forbid newspapers, black out the windows, and hire a principal-like guard strolling behind everyone's backs, supervising everyone's work. That's basically how it's going to feel, and it's *not* very productive. They're not children, and not adversaries, so don't treat them thus. _______________________________________________ The Uganda Linux User Group: http://linux.or.ug Send messages to this mailing list by addressing e-mails to: [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> Mailing list archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Mailing list settings: http://kym.net/mailman/listinfo/lug To unsubscribe: http://kym.net/mailman/options/lug The Uganda LUG mailing list is generously hosted by INFOCOM: http://www.infocom.co.ug/ The above comments and data are owned by whoever posted them (including attachments if any).
