[HISTORY: Adopted by the Board of Commissioners of York County 1-4-1995. Amendments
noted where applicable.]
As a large percentage of county departments have become involved
in the implementation and usage of electronic mail through the Information
Services System, it is necessary to advise all personnel regarding
the criteria and expectations involving the usage of the E-mail system.
All personnel should understand that the system is for business
purposes only.
While the E-mail system may be used for transaction of confidential
documents, employees are expected to understand that, should they
review such document, there is an expectation of responsibility to
maintain the confidentiality.
All personnel should realize that E-mail messages may be subject
to review from time to time by supervisory and/or managerial personnel
in order to ensure that the usage is for business purposes only.
Individuals found to be using the E-mail system for any purpose
other than county-authorized, business purposes or violating the required
confidentiality of the system may be subject to disciplinary action
for such violations, up to and including dismissal.
