CELLULAR PHONE USE #256 <br /> <br /> <br />working hours if it interferes with the performance of their job duties. <br />Use of public resources by city employees for personal gain and/or private use including, but not <br />limited to, outside employment or political campaign purposes, is prohibited and subject to disciplinary <br />action which may include termination and/or criminal prosecution, depending on the circumstances. <br />Incidental and occasional personal use may be permitted with the consent of the supervisor. <br /> <br />Personal calls will be made or received only when absolutely necessary. Such calls must not interfere with <br />working operations and are to be completed as quickly as possible. In cases where the city does not regard <br />accounting for personal calls to be unreasonable or administratively impractical due to the minimal cost <br />involved, personal calls made by employees on a city-provided cellular phone must be paid for by the <br />employee through <br />reimbursement to the city based on actual cost listed on the city’s phone bill. <br /> <br />PROCEDURES <br />It is the objective of the City of Lake Elmo to prevent and correct any abuse or misuse of cellular telephones <br />through the application of this policy. Employees who abuse or misuse such telephones may be subject to <br />disciplinary action. <br /> <br />RESPONSIBILITY <br />The city administrator, or designee, will have primary responsibility for implementation and <br />coordination of this policy. All supervisors will be responsible for enforcement within their departments. <br />
