Doing the Right Thing – In Action
I accessed a file on my computer that contains employee personal data. I don’t think I should have access to this information. What should I do?
You should let your manager or Human Resources know immediately. Exit the file and do not download any information that could be considered an employee’s personal data.
Doing the Right Thing – In Action
I sometimes answer Jabil-related calls and emails while in the airport traveling on Company business. Is that allowed?
It could pose a security risk. Avoid discussing confidential or sensitive Jabil information in public. When working in a public space, always connect to the company VPN and be sure that no one can see what’s on your screen.
Doing the Right Thing – In Action
An employee mistakenly sends an email containing sensitive customer information to the wrong recipient due to a typographical error in the email address. The unintended recipient now has access to this data. What should the employee do?
Immediately inform your immediate supervisor or manager and the Global Ethics and Compliance Team about the incident. They can provide guidance and escalate the matter to the appropriate individuals within the organization. If the email system allows for message recall, attempt to recall the email immediately. However, note that this feature doesn’t guarantee success, and the recipient may have already seen the email. A prompt reaction is key to mitigate the risk.
