Technology in the Workplace


 The wait is over, the hype has reached crescendo and pre-orders topped 2 million in 24 hours. Yes, we’re talking about the iPhone 5. We recently wrote a blog post on BYOD (bring your own device to work) which had a mixed reaction.

Some outlined security issues with employees taking home sensitive information that could fall into the wrong hands. If certain employees wanted to work on their tablet for example because they’re more comfortable using it, could that increase productivity and morale? This comes as research from BT Business has found that whilst two thirds (68%) of employers claim to have IT policies in place enabling BYOD, only 39% of employees appear to be aware of these policies.

This is an increasing trend and businesses need to have the policies in place and communicate them should they wish to embrace it.
