I don't see any reason for an employer to stop his or her employees from being with their phones during work hours especially when it is not a source of distraction.

Though depending on the type and nature of the job. There are jobs that requires that you use your mobile phone to attend to customers by taking orders and other important things..

If the mobile phone would cause distraction and make them loose concentration, then they should be restricted from using the mobile phone or any other devices..

Handling of mobile phone during working hours by employees depends on the type of job they are doing. While in most cases it could be a source of distractions. So it actually depends on the job..

In many workplaces, many employees are allowed to use phones. However, only senior employees are allowed to use their phones in workplaces. This depends a lot on the designation of the employee.

If the mobile phone are not causing any hazard to the person and any other distractions. People should be allowed to have their phones Incase of any emergency that could arise..

Some employees can't just stay focused and are always using company time to do social media and watch videos. That's why some organizations don't allow employees carrying phones to their workstations.
