The email and Internet usage policies (UK) are located on LockDocs and provide further information on the Company standards and guidelines relating to the use of electronic systems.

Anyone found to be in contravention of the Group policy regarding email and Internet abuse may be disciplined, up to and including dismissal. Serious breaches may amount to gross misconduct.

Use Of Private Car For Company Business

Should Associates be required to use their personal car for Company business, and they are not in receipt of a car allowance, they will be reimbursed at a rate per mile. The current rate can be obtained from the Finance Division. The mileage should be accurately recorded on an expenses claim form and approved by Managers.

The form should then be forwarded to the Finance Division for reimbursement. Associates are responsible for ensuring their car insurance permits business usage.

For Associates who receive a car allowance please see section 5.5.

Anyone driving on Company business should familiarise themselves with the health and safety policy HSP4 “Driving on Company Business”.

The above Associates will be contacted via email from a third party to request consent for these checks and to provide relevant documentation.
