Employee Privacy, Employer Policy
Mark Rasch, 2006-10-31

Mark Rasch looks at two recent court cases where an employee's reasonable expectation of privacy was more important than the employer's ability to read any employee's e-mail - despite a privacy policy that clearly stated any company e-mail can, and will, be monitored.

Inappropriate Use 2006-11-17
Mark D. Rasch (1 replies)

its not always sexual harassment. There are many things that are neither sexual NOR harassing but are nonetheless inappropriate in a workplace. The employer clearly can, and in some circumstances MUST control the work environment. The issue is whether the employee has ANY privacy rights at all. If the employer reimburses you for your home internet access, can he turn on your webcam? I think not.
