Introduction

Communication is a vital part of the Group’s work environment and is instrumental when conducting our daily business. The purpose of the Campus Telephone Policy is to provide a framework for the provision of telephony service.

There are three primary telephony services available to employees at the Campus.

  1. Facebook Workplace Chat
  2. Cisco VoIP phones
  3. Mobile

Employees are encouraged to use Facebook workplace chat for internal communications purposes. There are voice and video calling capabilities that should cover all internal telephony needs.

Cisco VoIP phones are reserved for those who require long distance calling capabilities. That means that most phones on the Campus will be removed and reassigned as requested and approved by Managers. Cisco phones will be placed in meeting rooms for all to use as needed.

Employees currently eligible for mobile phone allowance benefits will be switched to a Telenor Postpaid Package Plan to continue getting allowance benefits in future. This replaces all current phone allowance benefits.

Scope

This policy applies to all Staff based at the Campus.

Responsibilities

  • Group HR shall determine allowance levels, and to liaise with Telenor on changes, adds and removals.
  • Group IT will be responsible for providing Cisco phones to those who are eligible.
  • Entity Finance will receive itemized bill for checking and payment to Telenor on monthly basis
  • Employee’s will utilize their Telenor allowances primarily for business purposes. The telephone can be topped up, if needed at the employee’s expense, using Scratch cards.
