I have a small, privately owned business with just a handful of computers, a network and basic Internet connectivity. What value will an email policy add to my organization?
Beaver: First of all, it’s simply good business practice and the right thing to do. Email policies will show your customers that you take their information seriously. Your business partners will see that your organization is worth doing business with. Plus, they can keep you out of hot water if you end up with an HR issue on your hands. They can also keep you on the government’s good side too, if your business falls under one of the many state and federal regulations.
