What is the name of your state? PA
I was sending emails to customers and cc to myself to and from
work and home. I did some research on the requests at home.
A few weeks ago the manager found out and told me that it
was against co policy. I complied and stopped immediately.
I did check the manual and couldn't find anything specific; it
seemed more geared to downloading files, no personal use on co
computers, passwords, inventions etc. The manual
does say that violation of any section of the policy is cause for
disciplinary action up to and including immediate discharge.
Now I was informed by an upper management person that
I am being disciplined for using my email (OK I can understand that).
I was told I will either get probation or "seperation." I like my
job; there is not a problem with my performance there; just this email
situation. It seems to me that the probation is excessive. Can I
ask for clarification on this and for the section in the manual
that details the policy? The people involved have
presented this calmly so I don't want to upset the applecart.
But I am also not sure of my rights.
Thanks for any comments.What is the name of your state?
