IT Policy templates

[MikeHiow]

Since taking on IT at my current employer, I've pretty much built everything IT from the ground up. I now need to put in to effect an IT policy.

I think using a template either to modify, or as a guide is a good idea, however most I've found seem to be a "de-branded" copy of someone else's policy rather than a template. Most referring to other policies regularly.

Has anyone written their IT policy that can offer some advice? Or information on templates, guides etc. that may help with the process?

It mainly resolves around internet use. At the moment we do some light monitoring, and issues that arise are dealt with by means of a quick word asking someone not to do it again basically. Although, including more general stuff in the scope of the document would be good.

We do not need any level of lock down, but rather to reinforce what should be common sense for most people.
