When habit becomes a crime: Can you charge your cell phone in the office?.. As of: February 19, 2024, 3:15 p.m By: Laura Hindelang CommentsPressSplit Charging your phone at work can be a criminal offense if your employer has not given your consent.

This can result in a warning or termination. The power connection belongs to the company. Only the employer is allowed to determine how the power connection is used. But employees do not need express consent to use the sockets. Charging on the employer's power grid is always permitted.
