Chandigarh 18th May:- Wisdomjobs.com, one of India's leading end to end online recruitment and career solutions portals, today released the outcome/results of its survey -Impact of BYOD policies on productivity. The extensive survey was conducted across the country in 8 cities; Hyderabad, NCR, Mumbai, Kolkata, Chennai, Bangalore, Pune & Ahmedabad, covering the IT, ITeS, Telecom, Education, Media, BFSI, Engineering and Manufacturing sectors. The Survey also throws light on the views of implementation of Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) policies at the workplaces and the benefits associated with it.
There has been an increasing acceptance of BYOD policies amongst the corporate world as they play a critical role in improving employee productivity, especially through the usage of smart-devices for work. BYOD policies use a risk-based approach to define data that is and isn't allowed to leave the internal network. Therefore, the corporates need to be clear about their BYOD protocols before implementing the policy. While in majority of cases, usage outside the network does not go beyond emails and presentations, sensitive information such as financial or proprietary data must be subject to strict controls. There is always a risk of data loss when employees are sending sensitive documents to their personal devices, or making copies and storing them across multiple devices.
Ajay Kolla, Founder and CEO, Wisdomjobs.com said that with BYOD policies gaining increasing traction in organizations, companies are opening up to the benefits of allowing their employees to carry their own devices to work. Additionally, the burden of supplying, supporting and maintaining the devices is shifting from the organization to the employees, who in turn are more comfortable working on devices of their choice. It also does away with the time wasted in switching between devices when an employee is at work.
