Employees Email

And for a very good reason. .
             Employers of businesses provide equipment to employee's in the workplace to assist them in accomplishing their day-to-day tasks. This equipment is for work-related tasks only not for non-work related tasks. They monitor email that enters their system by using software that that records information and or activity on a computer and then sends the information to the person or company that installed it. Companies often install these programs on the systems in their offices to monitor employee usage. This helps ensure that employees are not surfing the web or writing personal emails when they should be working. This benefits the employer by abling them to prevent for example, hostile work environment by circulating racial or ethnic jokes on the company's e-mail system. In addition, because sexually explicit material is readily available from the Internet, and this material can be easily downloaded and forwarded to other employees, employers may be exposed to hostile work environment claims resulting from the viewing and transmitting of sexually explicit materials in the workplace. The Internet also could be used to disclose trade secrets and other confidential company information to competitors, or to organize a union using the employer's time and equipment. The negative side of monitoring employee email is this procedure exposes employer's to various forms of legal liability. .
             Employees on the other hand believe that email should be protected from the employer. They feel that their private email should be private and not be viewed by anyone but the intended recipient. Employees believe that their privacy is being disrespected. I feel that this is justified in some respects, but not in others. And the reason why I say this is and what I have experienced is because anyone who uses email at work should expect their employer to monitor what they are communicating especially when you spend more time handling personal business than company business.
