\"Computer<\/p>\n

Technology is changing rapidly. Most people have appreciated the use of emails to communicate with their friends and relatives. Emails are commonly used to pass messages in the workplace. It is important that you ensure that your email is safe. You can even consider changing the password of your email from time to time. An employee should never assume that the email that are sent and received are kept in complete privacy from their employers.<\/p>\n

Under the Electronic Communications Privacy Act (ECPA), it provides for implied authorization to review employees\u2019 emails. It also states that a company should state their policy of monitoring e-mails in the company handbook. Since new technologies are coming up, employers now have the options to monitor their employees when they use their phones, computer terminals, emails, voicemails and even when the employee is using the internet. Unless the employee\u2019s company policy states otherwise, an employer can readily listen, watch and even read most of the communications conducted by an employee during the course of their work day.<\/p>\n

You will realize that recent surveys actually show that majority of employers monitor their employee\u2019s activity in the workplace. Employer monitor the websites their employee\u2019s visit in order to prevent inappropriate surfing. The survey further shown that 65% pf employers use software to block connections to websites deemed off limits to employees.<\/p>\n

You will realize that E-mail is not normally considered private if the email system is used at a company that is owned by the employee. He or she can review its content from time to time. In this case, you should not expect a lot privacy when it comes to email communications. Emails that are actually sent within the company are subject to monitoring. In addition, emails that are sent from the employee\u2019s terminal to another company are subject to monitoring. These emails include those from Yahoo, Hotmail, AOL and so forth.<\/p>\n

If this email is deleted, it normally retained in the memory. You will realize that emails are often backed up along with other important data from the computer system. If the employer\u2019s email system has an option for the employee to mark their email messages as private in most cases, this does not always protect the emails. As an employee, you should read the employee handbook so that you can understand your employer\u2019s email policy. If this handbook does not address this issue of email monitoring, the employee should speak with their employer about their policy for the emails and privacy.<\/p>\n

It is worth noting that there is email monitoring in the workplace. You should be very careful when sending emails to your colleagues at the workplace. Your employer might review the content of your email from time to time.<\/p>\n
