Employee Privacy, Employer Policy

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.

Follow-up from LEO IT manager: I was referring more to potential access to a personal email account, versus an actual email that was sent. I'm pretty sure that once you hit send, you lose all control of personal privacy for that email! But passwords to personal resources, gained for instance by keyloggers or other snooping methods, is an entirely different story and I would say illegal! So I guess I'm just agreeing generally with Mark, that there is always some form of potenmtial "DMZ" between employer control and personal control.
