Doesn't this kind of policy erode communication within an organisation? How can you expect to develop friendships or improve social cohesion within working groups if people are worried than private conversations can be construed as sexual harassment for being overheard?
I mean if you're sitting for lunch outside the office talking to a friend and someone walks past at the wrong time and catches a snippet of conversation then what?
Howabout if you're having a private conversation on a work phone and unbeknownst to you someone had picked up another recieved and accidently overheard your conversation?
If you have no expectation of privacy at work how will the social dynamic function?
- dualboot 14y agoThere is no room for social dynamics in a corporate environment. The shareholders see no value in it.
- cup 14y agoThey might see value in it if staff no longer feel comfortable working there.

- chii 14y agoor new staff means less experience with the company's product/process, longer ramp up time. By the time it takes to become experienced, they now have become old staff, and must now leave as they find the company's policy sucks. Enter new staff - cycle repeats again, and no innovation or change happens in the company because peopel constantly turn over.
