EMPLOYEE E-MAIL MONITORING AND PRIVACY LAW IN THE AGE OF THE "ELECTRONIC SWEATSHOP" LAURIE THOMAS LEE* INTRODUCTION Employee privacy is considered to be the most significant workplace issue facing companies today.1 A recent survey of Amer- ican businesses by MacWorld magazine suggests that twenty million Americans may be subject to some type of electronic moni- toring through their computers on the job.2 Employer access to what employees thought were private electronic mail (E-mail) files is especially raising eyebrows. The same study reveals that of those companies that engage in electronic monitoring practices, over forty percent have searched employee E-mail files.3 This is particularly troubling when less than one-third of all admitted electronic surveillants say they ever warn employees,4 and only eighteen percent of companies even have a written policy on elec- tronic monitoring.' E-mail is considered to be the fastest growing form of elec- tronic communication in the workplace, but the laws addressing employee privacy rights with respect to E-mail are unclear.

While the Public Notice sought comment on a number of issues discussed in the Action Plan, these comments are limited to those raised therein regarding the Comprehensive Reform of Inmate Calling Services ("ICS"). In particular, the ICS Advocates have long-supported the Action Plan's call for the development of "real competition" and "reasonable rates in ICS and video visitation services," as well as the abolishment of "kickbacks to correctional facilities."2 Moreover, the ICS Advocates applaud the Action Plan's recognition that any rule changes adopted with regard to contraband cell phones should be mindful of the imposition of additional costs on inmates and their families. 1 The Wright Petitioners are: Dorothy Wade, Annette Wade, Ethel Peoples, Laurie Nelson, Winston Bliss, Sheila Taylor, Katharine Goray, Ulandis Forte, Charles Wade, Earl Peoples, Darrell Nelson, Melvin Taylor, Jackie Lucas, Peter Bliss, David Hernandez, Lisa Hernandez, Vendella F.
