Most people don't know their privacy rights as an employee. And many managers aren't clear on the rules either. With office emails, web browsing, and CCTV cameras now commonplace, it's something everyone should understand.
EmployeePrivacyRights explains what your actual rights are and what the law says. We've written articles on the privacy issues that matter, whether you're an employee or a manager. From phone calls and web use to access to personal information and official policies, we cover the topics that affect your working life.

Describe what your employer is monitoring or asking for and find out whether it is lawful under UK privacy and data protection law.
