Miler Waite can help you

Tackle and prevent Internet abuse
Deploy Internet monitoring
Develop an acceptable Internet usage policy

When it comes to Internet access, many companies who opened the barn door wide are now finding that they need to selectively bar it and establish controlled usage policies.

Here are some statistics:

1. 55% of workers are exchanging potentially offensive messages at least once a month.
2. In a recent survey of 224 firms that utilized monitoring software :

   60% of the managers said they had disciplined employees for online misuse 30% had dismissed staff for such behaviour (including downloading pornography, shopping and gambling online).

3. 47% of employees send up to 5 personal emails per day, and 32% send up to 10 personal emails daily, and 28% receive up to 20 personal emails per day.
4. Almost one in five people go to cybersex sites while at work.
5. Recently a major US computer manufacturer installed monitoring software and discovered that a number of employees had visited more then 1,000 sexually oriented sites in less than a month. Twenty people were dismissed for misusing company resources.
6. Employees from the top technology firms have accessed Penthouse thousands of times each month.

   58% of employers who monitor do so to control recreational use 47% do so to reduce bandwidth abuse 47% hope to eliminate downloads of pirated software 33% hope to reduce sluggish Internet connections due to recreational us

Despite these concerns, full-scale computer audits are completed by less than 25% of companies. When audits are conducted, zero-tolerance is enforced and those employees who are found to abuse the Internet are dismissed. However, zero-tolerance policies for employee Internet abuse cost companies extraneous expense in the recruitment for new staff. Furthermore, dismissals based upon Internet abuse result in significant production delays and repeated turnover costs that cut into a company?s bottom line.
