Summary of Changes from Previous Version

The new Acceptable Usage (Staff) Policy aims to establish a framework that promotes responsible and secure use of information and technology resources among Melbourne Polytechnic staff members. This new policy outlines clear expectations regarding the appropriate use of digital tools and platforms, safeguarding sensitive information, and adhering to legal and ethical standards in alignment with the VPDSF and RFFR. This new policy will also supersede the Information Technology Resource (All Users) Policy to ensure it aligns with the Acceptable Usage (Students) Policy and meets the new state and federal requirements.
