Privacy in the Workplace

To register for this event credit card payment is required.

Privacy rights are an increasingly important aspect of any employment relationship, and can raise tricky issues for employers. This session will provide an overview of the relevant privacy law considerations that arise in the workplace, as well as addressing frequently asked questions relating to:

• Recruitment – privacy related do’s and don’ts
• Workplace surveillance – cameras, GPS, and other forms of tracking
• Monitoring an employee’s online activities, emails and social media
• Drug and alcohol testing and other medical checks
• Responding to requests for personal information

We will also cover some recent cases where employers have “gotten it wrong”, the potential risks that can arise under privacy and employment law, and some best practice recommendations for compliance.

It is intended to provide a snapshot of the interface between privacy law and employment relationships, focusing on practical issues that employers and employees encounter frequently in the New Zealand workplace.
