How your business is percieved online is so important.   This is not just about setting ground rules for use of social media in the workplace , your Social Media Policy should complement your Social Media strategy (you have one right?), and define how you engage online with customers, clients and prospects, so that you deliver your messages with consistency and brand flavour.    But it goes even deeper.   As social media becomes more and more a part of our normal lives, according to a article from Smartcompany, the Hays Tomorrow Workforce survey (read more here) showed that more and more job seekers expect access to social media platforms, and more and more employers grant that access, but it must be done to ensure that time is used effectively.  Your policy is the guiding document for all this and more.
