Acceptable Use Policy – Version 1.02

I am currently in the process of updating one of my website’s resources: sample IT policies and procedures.

Policies and procedures set the foundation for good IT governance. My website maintains sample policies and procedures that set the foundation for effective management; they are relatively simple and are designed for use with small to mid-range organizations. You are free to use, copy, and modify this material to fit your needs.

The Acceptable Use Policy (AUP)

The AUP serves as a fair-use notice to employees and contractors; violations of fair-use may result in disciplinary consequences. It is the second in the IT Policy Series that defines what behavior is permissible from your employees. The Acceptable Use Policy should be incorporated into your new hire packet for employees. Existing employees should be presented with the AUP. A signature on this document confirming acknowledgement by all employees is preferable. You should retain the executed copy of this policy in the employee’s file indefinitely. This is a reasonable AUP that can be modified to suit your needs; it is intended for use with a small to mid-range business.
