Overview:

Courts are increasingly holding employers responsible for the actions taken by employees using company-owned computers. On the other hand, employees continue to push back through litigation claiming their privacy is being violated. It might come as a surprise to many that employees are sometimes justified in their expectations of workplace privacy. Today's managers must take steps to protect both the organization and the rights of their employees. This download looks at the current legal environment in which employers in the private sector are expected to monitor use of electronic communication over their networks. This includes a review of the law governing workplace privacy and relevant court rulings dealing with the rights of both employers and employees. A list of recommendations for creating and implementing workplace monitoring policies and processes that should help keep managers out of civil court is also presented.

This download is also available as a TechRepublic article.
