Three of four respondents to Compliance Week’s Inside the Mind of the CCO survey said their employers have policies and procedures in place that govern employee use of unauthorized communications on their cell phones.

The survey, conducted in November and December, found that another 11 percent of the 179 practitioners who answered the question were currently drafting new policies under regulatory scrutiny. Fifteen percent reported that they had no off-channel communications policies in place.
