SAMPLE COMPANY CELL PHONE POLICY

October 22, 2008

Employees are reminded that when driving a vehicle for [company name], whether the vehicle is company-owned or otherwise, you have one and only one responsibility and that is driving the vehicle. Safe driving requires 100% attention to the task at hand. Using a cell phone while driving leads to an increased risk of having an accident through distraction and/or a lack of attention to driving.

To ensure your safety, using mobile phones, cell phones, text pagers, or two-way radios, whether for work or personal use, while driving is strictly forbidden.

Please advise callers of this company's cell phone policy.

Rule of the road for your cell phone use:

  • Refrain from placing or receiving unnecessary calls. Allow voice mail to handle call the call for you.
  • Do not place calls while driving. Pull over first or have a passenger place/answer the call.
  • Never pick the phone up off the floor while driving. Pull over and park first.

I have read and will abide by the conditions as stated in this document regarding the operation of any vehicle for company business.
