Is ‘tagging’ employees a breach of privacy?
March 23, 2007

Source: Workplace Law
The GMB union has welcomed moves by the European Commission to study the use of radio frequency identification (RFID) tags, because of concerns over the fact that they have been introduced in some workplaces in order to monitor employees. The Commission has agreed to set up an RFID Stakeholders Group and to publish recommendations on how to handle data security and privacy.

However, employers be warned, there are currently a number of pieces of legislation that make it illegal for employers to monitor staff’s email or calls without informing them. Under the Human Rights Act 1998, the Data Protection Act 1998, the Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act 2000, and the Telecommunications Regulations 2000 employers must inform employees why their email is being checked.
