CA Bill to Address Employers Who Spy on Employees
Legislation approved by the California State Senate would require employers to inform employees of cyber monitoring activity. The Senate Bill 1841 would force companies to disclose their review of employee e-mail, web surfing, and whether GPS tracking technology is present in company vehicles. In a 2003 survey of "e-policies and practices" the American Management Association found that 52 percent of organizations read employees' e-mail, an increase from a 2001 survey.
