Use of Electronic Mail

  • Brief and occasional personal use of the electronic mail system or the Internet is acceptable as long as it is not excessive or inappropriate.
  • Use is defined as "excessive" if it interferes with normal job functions, responsiveness, or the ability to perform daily job activities. Electronic communication should not be used to solicit or sell products or services that are unrelated to the City's business; distract, intimidate, or harass coworkers or third parties; or disrupt the workplace.
  • All e-mail and messages are the property of the City of Dalton and may be retrieved and are subject to review.
