What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? NJ
Not sure where this question should be posted.....
Can a cellular phone company legally monitor the use of an employee owned cell phone and take disciplinary action against an employee based on its findings? This is not a company issued cell phone. It is a cell phone purchased and owned by the employee. The employee also pays for the monthly service for the phone, although he does receive an employee discount for the monthly service charges. The employee did not give the company permission to monitor his usage.
There are no court orders, etc, involved in this scenario. In this scenario, the company is doing this monitoring on their own without any govt involvement.
If this is illegal, what specific law is being broke.
Are the answers to these questions any different in PA than NJ?
