Everyone,
As a company, we would like to introduce a policy on the use of social networking sites. We would like to add it to our staff handbook to inform employees that they are not supposed to access social networking websites in the office.
Please help me with content for such a policy. I did a search on the internet, but most of them are talking about limited use of such sites, whereas we don't want our employees to visit/access such sites.
Looking forward to your help...

Dear Gaurav,
I am sure it's a very old discussion to reopen, but in my view, companies should allow employees to use social networking sites with a limited number of times. Actually, you can suggest professional networking sites like HR Dig - Purely professional HR networking (http://www.hrdig.com) or any other that you think is really professional and decent to use, not some social networking sites that have vulgarity or a purpose that is more than decency.
Thanks,
