Phones should always be available in case there is an emergency. Valuable minutes could be lost by relying on others to convey a message. If some of yours are pulling the piss then deal with it. However a blanket ban isn't the answer.Afternoon all,
What’s your companies stance on mobile phones in your work place ?
Since I’ve had to bring new blood in it’s a problem I’ve had to tackle head on,telling lads to leave their phones in their bags until bait time,threats of the sack,etc etc.
It’s a real addiction to some people and they can’t put them down,hence me implementing draconian measures.I’ve been think “what the fu k have these been allowed to get away with elsewhere?”
It then got me thinking of this place,the amount of people who post during the day who have 9-5 jobs is mind blowing.How do you get away with it?
Thanks now.

Fair enough, pull the pisstakers.Blanket ban isn’t what’s being implemented
Only right marra.I won’t be fucked on with people Geo,they will be out the f***ing door
If you were caught with either of those, I'd sack you on the spot for being stuck in the last f***ing century ffsWe have a zero tolerance. If you’re seen with a phone at work then you’re suspended for 20 working days.
It’s a AAR requirement that we don’t have any personal electronic devices. Even if you’re caught with a Walkman or a tamagotchi, it’s a personal electronic device
Shock horror.I work in the Civil Service, people are on their phones all the time at their desk.
Fair enough in a teaching role.According to our staff handbook we aren't allowed phones on us. However to access work emails we need a code which is sent to us by text.
Every first aid course I've attended has stated you need to talk directly to the 999 operator in the case of an emergency.
Sounds like my day tooI do fuck all at work so I can post all day if I want. I use my work computer to do so as well.
One of the annoying things I find is when you have someone working in the house and their partners phone them up constantly.

Nobody tells me when I can or can’t use my phone.
I’m not a child.
I wouldn’t work in such an environment.At my old place you would be..your there to work not piss about on your mobile..warning..final warning..sacked.
I’d rather fold the company and set fire to all the vans than beat about the bush like this.@Gillythedilf have you tried explaining the RAMS to them again, then explained how it would invalidate insurance if they hurt themselves using a phone when the RAMS say not to?
Might focus their mind when they start to realise they won't get a pay out if they are off work injured
Your a sensible lad ,but if your constantly on your phone pissing about then you’d expect to be told in no uncertain terms to grow up.I wouldn’t work in such an environment.
