I would say "no", but there's one area it could apply: to make sure an employer will never require an employee to be on the phone while driving (even on speakerphone).

This is why when in a big enterprise, you’ll find a bunch of these completely unrelated sections appended to the employee handbook.

So that when shit like this happens, you can legitimately say “We ask employees to not play games while driving.”

It’s utterly pointless, but makes the company and the regulator feel good?

It helps with their insurance as well, especially if someone is driving on company business.

Absolutely not. That recommendation makes no sense.
