Some people believe that the right of privacy should be extended to the workplace. Others feel that, on the contrary, such an extension would constitute an unwarranted incursion into management's right to manage. Please comment on this debate, using examples from the text discussion of electronic monitoring, romance in the workplace, employee drug testing, and employee honesty testing. Are there particular circumstances under which it is, or is not, appropriate for employers to monitor employee behavior?

Explanation:

This discussion about organizations monitoring employee behavior can be related to ethical and unethical issues.

The ideal is for the company to have a set of well-defined policies and procedures with regard to the rights and duties of employees, as long as the policies have ethical and legal foundations, which guarantee the right to privacy and human integrity.

Therefore, the monitoring of the employee's behavior must always be related to their functions, and to the fulfillment of internal policies.
