Should the camera be installed in the office

Recently, Mr. Citizen Cheng called the newspaper and said that the company had installed monitoring equipment in the staff’s office. When employees walk into the office, they have a feeling of being watched by the eyes. They feel very uncomfortable to talk and behave. Everyone has great opinions on this.

Employees were monitored for "suspicious illness"

Mr. Shicheng Cheng worked in a substation and was responsible for monitoring the operation of some valuable electrical equipment in the equipment area. The unit has always been in a good state of work, but since the company had installed a surveillance camera at the staff office a year ago, he has developed a "suspicious illness."

“In the past, we monitored the equipment. Now we are monitored by the equipment.” Mr. Cheng said that the office area is not large, only the desk, the computer and the staff. “If the camera is only in the equipment room we can understand, but why An is in the surveillance room. Isn't it monitoring us?"

What makes employees even more embarrassed is that while everyone is working hard, it is inevitable that there are still some small tricks, such as blowing nose, tickling and the like, sometimes seen by curious people, often talking and laughing I feel very awkward, and everyone has great opinions in private.

In order to facilitate the work, the reporter contacted the company to which Mr. Cheng belonged. A staff member of the office said that the installation monitoring is not to monitor the employees' private life but to facilitate the work. “This is the provision in our production system. The substation control room is a three-shift office, and employees are only under control during working hours.” The staff member said that the monitoring situation is managed by the duty room and used to understand at any time. The work situation of the control room can be grasped promptly in the event of an accident or an abnormal situation.

Lawyers cannot use the camera at will. According to Wang Yaqiong, a lawyer from Hebei Mazhizhan Law Firm, there is no specific law in the country that stipulates the problems of camera and video settings. Therefore, the employer’s installation of a camera in an office is not It inevitably constitutes an infringement of the privacy rights of employees, but this does not mean that employers are free to use the camera.

According to Wang Yaqiong, there are certain restrictions on the installation of cameras: First, the installation of monitoring equipment should clearly inform employees that if there is no express disclosure, there is suspicion of invading privacy. Secondly, monitoring should be limited to the workplace and working hours. The monitoring content is limited to the business activities of the company. For example, locker rooms, toilets and other private places cannot be set, otherwise it is infringement. Third, the employer has strict confidentiality obligations for the personal privacy information of the monitored employees and must not disclose it at will. Finally, it needs to be emphasized that in addition to ensuring the security of property, it is not advisable to install cameras in the office area as a management tool.
