The Internet, along with technologicaladvancements in the workplace, has created new opportunities for individuals’deviational behaviours. As a result, organizations face serious challenges. Internetemergence in the workplace has created many opportunities for organizations, e.g.,increasing the velocity of communications in the organization. On the other hand,employees can use the internet for personal and non-working purposes. Onlineactivities with personal aims are called cyberloafing/ cyberslacking. Hence,cyberloafing management is highly important. In this paper, we analyse theimportance of this subject, as well as the different aspects of this phenomenon. Todo this, we discuss relevant literature and texts. We also show these aspects in anAntecedents Behaviour Consequences (ABC) model. In this model, personality, jobdemands, role conflict, organizational policies and organizational justice areconsidered as the antecedents. Cyberloafing as behaviour, productivity andexhaustion are the consequences.
