Are ALL of your e-mails being reviewed by your boss? Pt 2

Post by MSI »

This is a continuation of prior thread Are ALL of your e-mails being reviewed by your boss?.

Sept 14, 2010: The Legal Intelligencer Can Employers Review Electronic Messages? by Daniel J. McGravey and Amy C. Lachowicz
Several recent court decisions have highlighted the fundamental need for employers to have clearly worded policies addressing employee use of work-issued electronic devices.
  • The Supreme Court held that an employee that violates department policy does not have a right to privacy.
    In another court case the court held that the employee had a reasonable expectation of privacy in her private, password-protected internet e-mail account, and the act of sending and receiving e-mails via a company laptop did not eliminate the attorney-client privilege that protected them.
These decisions are instructive for employers. See the article for details:Can Employers Review Electronic Messages?
