Employee Caught Looking at Perceived Porn During Live TV Interview

Picture this: A male financial advisor, at a well-known bank, receives an email with near-nude photographs. He takes his time looking through the photos, every now and then minimizing them to prevent people passing by from catching a glimpse.

We are all well aware of the less desirable effects this behavior has on a business. Loss of productivity, wasting precious bandwidth and potential for sexual harassment law suits.

Now imagine that the financial advisor’s near-nude photo browsing is being captured and broadcasted live on one of Australia’s national news network for millions of people to see, and later watch on YouTube. Wait, you don’t have to imagine. This actually happened.

Another wealth advisor at the bank was being interviewed on the financial market’s reaction to the Australian Reserve Bank keeping interest rates on hold. However, I don’t think anyone paid attentions to the interest updates as all eyes were on fixed on the computer screen in the background.

Hopefully this will act as a a reminder to all organizations – No matter how strict your acceptable Internet/Email usage policy is, it is worthless if adherence to it is not properly monitored.
