Serving Ontario and the Maritimes

How can employers and unions best maintain employee privacy while ensuring employer access to relevant information? In this Ontario- and Atlantic-focused webinar, experts will review legislation, caselaw, and key principles concerning the accessibility and permissible uses of employee personal information. Specifically, panelists will address the following questions:

  • What laws govern employee privacy and employer access to information in Ontario and in the Atlantic provinces?
  • What types of employee personal information can employers request access to? Can employers request updates, and if so, at what frequency?
  • Are there any restrictions on an employer’s right to access, analyze, or use information not actively shared by employees, such as information obtained through surveillance measures?
  • Are there any restrictions on an employee’s right to access information in their employer’s possession?
  • In what circumstances have adjudicators held that employee information was accessed, used, or shared improperly?
  • What key issues should employers and unions address in policies or collective agreements regarding privacy and access to information?
