Re: Employment Law

Employers are well within their rights to prohibit any use of employee cell phones. If you want the legal right to enjoy the use of your cell phone while you work, then you will need to become self-employed. Or maybe you could organize a union, and negotiate a bargaining agreement that allows the use of phones. Good luck.
