Sub:
Accidental bringing mobile phones/head phones in bag and the action follows.
Sir,
It has been
observed that, employees are sometimes unknowingly bringing their mobile phones in their office bags.
Such mobiles if found during checking were being spoiled and only ‘SIM card’ is
being returned to them by security officers. Such incidents are likely to
happen on working day followed by holidays.
Nowadays
scanning machines are kept and the bags will be screened before entering into
the premises. Considering the wide use of mobiles during these modern days, it
is time reconsider about the practice of totally spoiling the mobiles and its
contents etc.
We suggest
that if mobile is found, a computer expert may check its contents and if any
secret or objectionable documents or pictures are found, the Dept. is free to
take action, otherwise such mobiles may be handed over to the concerned
individual with a forewarning. It is possible that the mobile may contain some
personnel documents which are important to that individual.
Thanking
you
Yours
faithfully
A. Sreedharan
(Gen.
Secretary)
