EMPLOYER PROVIDED CELLULAR
PHONES
The Livingston Parish School Board may provide cell phones to employees
to ensure the safety of the educational community and school clientele, as well
as to enhance all facets of school operations and procedures to improve the
efficiency of the district. The
Superintendent shall designate those employees who may be issued cell phones,
based on the employees’ duties and responsibilities.
Cell phones are not a personal benefit, nor a primary mode of personal
communication. Cell phones must be used for school-related business
only.
While Board-owned cell phones are not to be used for personal calls,
should such calls occur, the School Board shall be reimbursed for all personal
calls as well as a pro rata share of assessed fees and charges.
Employees shall reimburse the School Board within ten (10) days of the
billing notice by the School Board.
School Board personnel shall monitor use of the Board-owned cell phones
on a monthly basis for propriety and reasonableness of phone use and review the
policy on a yearly basis.
