Hello All,
Our company is into IT and Services. The nature of the job demands providing Blackberry phone and Laptop to some of the Employees.
Our office has provided Blackberry a Laptop to the employees whose role demands it.
Recently one of the employees lost the two year old blackberry phone in the bus queue.
The company has asked for the penalty and the penalty has been calculated at 15% depreciation which amounts to a around RS 18,000. the current price of the new blackberry in the market is much lesser than the penalty asked for 2 yr old blackberry.
The employees do not get any bonus for such 24 hours support. Also it is made compulsory for certain employees to carry the laptop and blackberry.
My query is related to what are the laws that are there for 24 X 7 on call IT support. Also are penalties for loss of equipment provided by the company justified ??
How are the depreciation for Blackberry calculated.
Regards,
Vinita
