No. Its not even abiut the phone submission. Any jobs that insists on submitting your phone is a shitty job.

Shitty jobs it may be. But people don't care about shits if it feeds them.

Or would you want factory worked to be pressing phones and still be operating machines?

Drop your opinion.




This policy is always applicable to eateries and fast food because I once work there, but it a very hard discussion but then I did it just to earn a living but now I can't no longer be in such bondage anymore because someone might want to reach you for something important

Would an employer ask employees or to use phones during work just like that?

In banks - to avoid distracttions and for security.

In production sites - because of flammable gases and other materials that may react to your phone's magnetic field.

There are intelligence departments that you're not allowed to use any digital device.

It's for the safety and security of everybody.

What happens at emergency occurrence at home that your attention is needed?

Did they make a provision for means of reaching employees in such case?

If there isn't such provision, I won't do the work irrespective of the pay.

Employee's welfare should be a consideration
you are lying. If the pay is in millions fah?

I thought you'd make the mistake of accepting that invite.

Tomorrow would have been the last day you'd ever insult anyone, whether online or offline.

Now swerve!

I know multinationals require their staff working in certain sections like gas or PMS storage areas and plants to submit their phones.. the ones in offices don't necessarily need to submit theirs.

If it is company's policy.. Why not?
Submit the damn thing while you work to earn your money.. You have all the time after work to press phone till you get tired.

Of course, they must have clearly stated it in their rules and regulations or code of conduct, and made it known to you at the time of your employment.

So there's no point asking again when you already know the rules.

There's no job that employees efficiency canot be affected by "distraction"...

If you have a business or you are a supervisor in an office, you will understand better.

Before we banned the use of cellphones during working hours in my unit, I used to see grown up adults log in to Netflix, YouTube, Facebook etc. some minutes after 8am on a Monday morning.

Omoh leave ooooo.

Not anymore....

Any work related to production doesn't allow the use of phones.... But Nigerians can be sturborn reason why employer collect phones before you assume work or when caught with phone...

But sincerely it doesn't make sense, one can have an emergency and the only means to reach that person has been blocked...
UAC Foods that year, supervisor cease my phone taya....

If you are fans of online live streaming most the worker in Ford assembly plant in US always stream themself live it about mentality. The reason for our own is that we are not working per hour, if we are working per hour per pay, so oyinbo man don't care even if you dey strip while working there own is that for that hour what you are expected to deliver you must deliver it so even if you combine other activities toot

If you need the job, submit your phone, do your job and collect your salary and go.
You were not born with phone gummed to your hand. So the employer is not mutilating you.
The boss can clearly see that this generation is unfocused, checking phone 27 times a day for useless messages.
If however you believe that you cannot let go of whatever message you are checking inside your phone,
then carry your phone along with you and go and find another job.

Although this example is not perfect, but this is the Nokia 9300. It came out around 2007/8..
As you can see, it doesn't have any camera. Almost all other Nokias back then had cameras.
This one was created to prevent employees of organisations from taking pictures of company stuff.
It's just an example though.

But if you can't accept the employers conditions on phone usage, then leave the job and save him and yourself headache.

Truth be told using of phone during work hour especially if you work in a production unit reduce productivity.

I believe the best thing to do is tell workers to buy small nokia phones or those itel,if using of phone is important,use the small one while you put the big ones away till after work.
