Why This Policy Matters

Organization-owned property and equipment support daily work, but unclear responsibilities can lead to loss, damage, unauthorized use, security concerns, and inconsistent recovery practices. A written policy defines acceptable use and employee accountability, establishes inventory and maintenance expectations, explains reporting procedures for loss or damage, and requires the timely return of property when assignments change or employment ends.

What This Policy Covers

Assignment & Inventory
Procedures for issuing property, documenting condition, recording serial or asset numbers, acknowledging receipt, and maintaining accurate inventory records.

Acceptable Use & Employee Responsibility
Standards for business use, reasonable personal use when permitted, authorized users, careful handling, and compliance with organizational requirements.

Security, Storage & Protection
Expectations for safeguarding equipment, securing devices and access credentials, preventing theft or misuse, and protecting property during travel or remote work.

Maintenance, Repairs & Modifications
Guidance for routine care, approved repairs, software or hardware changes, vendor service, upgrades, and prohibited alterations.

Loss, Damage & Incident Reporting
Procedures for promptly reporting missing, stolen, damaged, or compromised property and cooperating with investigation or recovery efforts.

Return, Recovery & Separation
Requirements for returning property when requested, changing roles, taking leave, or ending employment, together with permitted recovery procedures.

Who This Policy Is For

Designed for organizations that issue equipment, devices, tools, keys, vehicles, or other property to employees for business use.
