Employers need to protect themselves from workers whose behavior damages the company. Does that give them the right to conduct random drug tests, read employees' e-mail, search desk drawers, and monitor off-the-job activities?

Workplace privacy issues are complex - many employers are confused about their legal and ethical rights. The New Battle Over Workplace Privacy provides critical information to help companies create appropriate policies and practices. Through case examples, highlights of state and federal laws, checklists, and sample policies, this book shows a company how to:
  • Protect itself from employee theft, substance abuse, and other misconduct.
  • Stay within legal bounds by learning what laws are (and aren't) in place.
  • Avoid litigation - and win the cases that do go to court.
