IT Policies and Procdures templates from Business Victoria
Every business that uses computers, email, the internet and software on a daily basis should have information technology (IT) policies in place.
It takes a little effort to complete, but brings definite long-term benefits, reduces disputes, and adds to the professionalism of your business.
Why use a policy and procedure manual?
The main benefits to having an information technology policy and procedure manual are:
- It ensures all staff are aware of obligations in relation to selection, use and safety when utilising information technology within the business.
- It's a proven way to help your managers and supervisors make consistent and reliable decisions.
- It helps give each employee a clear understanding as to what you expect and allow.
