Workplace Privacy Act

The Workplace Privacy Act is a law designed to protect employees' privacy rights in the workplace. It sets guidelines on how employers can monitor employees, such as through email, phone calls, or video surveillance. The Act aims to balance the employer's need for security and productivity with the employee's right to privacy. Under this law, employers typically must inform employees about monitoring practices and obtain consent in certain situations, helping to ensure that employees are aware of their rights regarding their personal information while at work.
