We collect a lot of information about workers through monitoring e-mails and internet access. What do we have to do when one of them makes a subject access request?
If a worker makes a subject access request he or she is entitled to access to all the information of which he or she is the subject. This will include internet access logs and e-mail records. Remember though that a worker will not be the subject of a message simply because he or she is its sender or recipient. Clearly the more information that is amassed about workers through monitoring, the more onerous employers may find it to respond to subject access requests. Systems that are designed with subject access in mind are though likely to reduce the burden considerably.
