IT Policies in Deel IT allow clients to group workers who require similar equipment or software, ensuring that the right devices and tools are assigned to the appropriate teams. For instance, an engineering team may need specific devices such as MacBook Pros with 16GB RAM and external monitors. By creating an IT policy for the engineering department, only workers assigned to that policy will have access to these devices, while other departments, like finance or marketing, can have entirely different devices that meet their needs.
Deel IT policies help with:
- Standardization - IT policies help ensure that each department or group of workers receives the devices and tools they need to perform their job, leading to consistent workflows and reducing the risk of mismatched equipment.
- Efficiency - By predefining which devices are available to each group, IT teams save time and avoid manually selecting equipment for each worker during the onboarding process.
- Cost Control - IT policies allow clients to manage equipment distribution based on budget allocations and company standards, ensuring that only approved devices are provided, which helps keep spending under control.
- Security and Compliance - By controlling which devices are accessible to certain teams, IT policies help maintain compliance with internal security protocols, ensuring workers have the necessary tools without exposing them to unnecessary risks.
This article explains how clients can create IT policies in Deel IT to manage devices for different groups of workers.
