US car giant Ford has warned its 20,000 UK workers to get rid of offensive material from their computers or face the sack.
Workers have until Friday 15 March to remove pornographic, racist or sexist material from their hard drives.
News of the clampdown was circulated to staff via email.
During the next two weeks users can ask system administrators to remove gifs, jokes or anything else that might be deemed offensive. After that date, Ford will dismiss staff possessing or sending unsuitable material.
"The company reserves the right to conduct random audits of its computer resources," the email reads, according to the Evening Standard. "Systems will be able to determine that the data has been accessed since the clean-up period."
