Hello! We are an SQF company struggling with what to allow employees as far as electronics on the production floor (earbuds, cell phones, radio's, ipods, etc.) Does anyone have any suggestions on how to handle this and keep in accordance with SQF standards?

There are SO many parallel threads on this forum regarding electronic policies - from cell phone policies to headphone policies. I'd encourage you to do a general search for this. 

 

I think the general consensus is that they create an unnecessary foreign material and biological contamination risk and should not be allowed. 

 

See some of these threads for further discussions:

Pipe in music is what several of our clients do, however not one allows anything beyond that.
