A new provision of Ontario’s Employment Standards Act took effect Tuesday, meaning if you work at a company with 25 or more employees, your employer has to tell you exactly how it’s electronically monitoring you and why.
“It really is just the very first step. Because what workers need is some reasonable protections from the surveillance itself, if or when it crosses the boundary between a valid employer need and oppressive data scoop,” said Brenda McPhail, director of privacy, technology and surveillance at the Canadian Centre for Civil Liberties.
“We’ve all seen stories of people working from home and a screenshot being taken every 10 minutes, or people going to the washroom and employers monitoring how long they’re in the washroom. That’s not right,” said McNaughton. In the lead-up to the new provision coming into force, many employers were still trying to figure out exactly how much monitoring they did. Top executives don’t always have a solid grasp on just what their IT departments are able to do.
