不久前,我们公司的一个同事因为上班时用电脑浏览非工作相关网站先被警告,紧接着就开除了。此举还真吓着了不少人,谁没上班时偷个闲看个网页什么的。我上网查了一下相关法规,Workplace Surveillance Act 2005 No 47里面有说对于员工的摄像与电脑监控必须预先给书面notice,并在监控场所入口处有清晰标识。但我们公司似乎都没有做过。就这样直接以监控录像和电脑监控为据处罚员工是否合法呢?
附上网上搜来的Workplace Surveillance Act 2005 No 47节选:
10 Notice of surveillance required
(1) Surveillance of an employee must not commence without prior notice in writing to the employee.
Note. Subsection (6) provides for an exception to the notice requirement.
(2) The notice must be given at least 14 days before the surveillance commences. An employee may agree to a lesser period of notice.
(3) If surveillance of employees at work for an employer has already commenced when an employee is first employed, or is due to commence less than 14 days after an employee is first employed, the notice to that employee must be given before the employee starts work.
(4) The notice must indicate:
(a) the kind of surveillance to be carried out (camera, computer or tracking), and
(b) how the surveillance will be carried out, and
(c) when the surveillance will start, and
(d) whether the surveillance will be continuous or intermittent, and
(e) whether the surveillance will be for a specified limited period or ongoing.
(5) Notice by email constitutes notice in writing for the purposes of this section.
(6) Notice to an employee is not required under this section in the case of camera surveillance at a workplace of the employer that is not a usual workplace of the employee.
11 Additional requirements for camera surveillance
Camera surveillance of an employee must not be carried out unless:
(a) cameras used for the surveillance (or camera casings or other equipment that would generally indicate the presence of a camera) are clearly visible in the place where the surveillance is taking place, and
(b) signs notifying people that they may be under surveillance in that place are clearly visible at each entrance to that place. |
