Welcome to the “Ethics Toolkit: Privacy at Work” video lesson intended to highlight the fact that most employers monitor the websites their workers visit and the electronic communications they send. This video lesson is part of the “Ethics Toolkit,” which encourages employees from top to bottom of the organization to behave in an ethical and upright manner at work. In this lesson, viewers will learn employers’ rights to block or limit access to certain websites, track web activity, monitor email messages, and perhaps even monitor phone calls.
