I work in Oregon, for Fedex Ground. At my workplace cellphones have been permitted, although we are forbidden from using them during the shift. Today we were told that someone had been seen using a phone and so they would no longer be allowed in our department. Unfortunate but fair enough. However the manager then pulled out a box and demanded that we all place our cellphones inside, people argued with him for a few minutes, citing the cost of the devices but he persisted. A few hours later he changed his mind and returned the phones. So my question is does a manager have the right to confiscate property without a prior policy in place? Is this something I would have cause to complain to HR about? Thanks!
