In this discussion:
- Explain what right to privacy you believe an employee should enjoy at work.
- Describe what right to surveillance a company should have in watching over employees it is paying and property it owns.
Note: If you are not in management or do not own a company, consider what rights you would want for surveillance with regards to a nanny you hired to watch your child in your home.
- The hardest ethical dilemmas to decide are ones that involve competing rights. Explain where you would draw the line with regards to workplace privacy.
