Using Office Supplies
In a busy office, supplies and paper items have a way of coming and going. Paper clips, pens and staplers are lost and found within the full routine of office life. While some items may go missing as a matter of course, there are certain office supplies which are sometimes taken with intent. An employee may want to use a notepad to write a grocery shopping list, or pocket a handful of paperclips for a home project.
Is it permitted for an employee to use office supplies for his personal use?
The situation depends on the following question: Does the employee know that the boss allows him to use the office supplies? Is he sure that the boss does not mind if he makes a few extra photocopies?
