  5. Why are you monitored at work? • Technological advances and the increased use of electronic communication in the workplace have made monitoring its use necessary for most companies.

  6. What is the impact? • Failure to monitor employee’s use of e-mail and the Internet can be costly to the company. • 70% of attacks on corporate computer systems are conducted from inside the firm • Productivity has decreased due to personal use of electronic communications • If you are caught doing something at work you are not supposed to be doing, you can be terminated, fined, jailed, fired, or put on probation.

  7. Do you have to be made aware of monitoring? • No, you don’t have be made aware of monitoring. • It's almost always legal because there are no laws regulating electronic surveillance in the private sector workplace. The only limit to employer surveillance comes from the Electronic Communications Privacy Act (ECPA), a federal law passed in 1986. The ECPA prohibits employers from deliberately eavesdropping on purely personal conversations that an employee may have at work. It does not, however, prevent employers from listening in on business-related conversations or monitoring electronic communications such as email and instant messaging.
