create a standard operating procedure or guidelineFor this assignment, you will write a one- or two-page Standard Operating Procedure or Guideline (SOP or SOG) to
address the use of social media and the significant impact on organizational and professional reputations. Keep in mind
that, in today’s work environment, many employees need immediate access to social connections, and they believe they
must be available right away in order to stay focused on current events and new information. You want to be fair while at the
same time protecting your organization from liability, possible criminal acts, and the criticism from the public. You will be
writing the purpose statement, scope, and procedure.
Most SOPs or SOGs will have more areas than these three sections. If you have never written or seen an SOP, an example
titled, “Engine Company Operations” is provided for you to review.
In addition, a blank template for the Unit III Scholarly Activity is provided for you to complete the assignment. The purpose
statement should provide detailed instructions to facilitate compliance of the SOP. The scope includes the activities the
SOP applies to as well as any limitations or exceptions. The procedure will describe specifically what to do to ensure
compliance by all intended users—not how to do it.
Your SOP should address:
images that could breach patient confidentiality or even be illegally obtained,
images relevant to a legal proceeding such as evidence,
images of an embarrassing nature, and
images that are public records even when on personal devices.
If you use any material from other sources, you must include citations and references at the bottom of the SOP or SOG. All
sources for the information you use from the Waldorf Online Library should be from reputable, reliable journal articles, case
studies, scholarly papers, and other sources that you feel are pertinent. All sources used, including the textbooks, must be
referenced; paraphrased and quoted material must have accompanying citations in proper APA Style.
