Can I store files on my laptop hard drive?

In the past we discouraged storing work content on the hard drive of your assigned physical PC/laptop due to the fact it would not be backed up.

Since migrating to Office 365 this has changed, as we leverage Microsoft OneDrive to keep the contents of your Desktop, Documents, and Pictures folders backed up to OneDrive (these are the default folders; you can add other folders on your computer if needed).

As long as your OneDrive is signed in and backup is enabled you should be good.

Keep in mind that there is a limited amount of storage for your OneDrive (750GB). Because of this, please ensure that you're not storing personal files in OneDrive (or at the very least keep it to a minimum).

Be aware that this primarily relates to your work files. For project-related files best practice is that they should be stored with the project (in Teams/SharePoint or in Procore) and not in your personal OneDrive folder/on your computer.

With regards to personal files, the company is not responsible any loss of personal content, and any content stored on company-issued equipment should be in good taste, should not impact your work performance, and should not interfere with or negatively impact the company's reputation. Any objectionable material found will be immediately deleted and reported to your supervisor.

Allowed personal content does not include installed software (any applications installed on company owned equipment needs to be approved by IT).
