Report Link How Often Should Employees Check E-Mail After Hours?Young Conaway Stargatt & Taylor, LLP - November 06, 2009 If you’re an associate at the law firm Quinn Emanuel, the answer is “very, very often.” Report Link Regulating Employee Email.Fisher & Phillips, LLP - August 04, 2009 Considering the widespread availability of computers and email to employees, it's hardly surprising that union organizers and pro-union employees now look to an employer's email system as a prime means of organizing. Here, in the context of an important new legal decision, we discuss options for lawful and effective management and control of your e-systems, including in particular your email systems. Report Link E-Mail and Online Etiquette: What Employers and Employees Need to Know.Fredrikson & Byron, P.A. - August 27, 2008 Everyone has some awareness that e-mail is not a particularly safe mode of communication and that you should refrain from sending confidential information over an e-mail server. Most people also know that once you click “send,” you have created a permanent record of that correspondence. Report Link An Employer’s Right to Monitor E-Mail and Text Messages Remains Strong.Fredrikson & Byron, P.A. - July 02, 2008 Employers continue to have the right to access, monitor, and review an employee’s use of e-mail and text messages when that employee is using company-provided technology. Yet, recent publicity of a Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals’ decision has created a new buzz about the privacy rights of employees. This new decision, however, does not create an exception to the generally accepted rule: employees do not have an expectation of privacy in the communications that they send with company-provided technology. To the contrary, it outlines the importance of consistent and appropriate enforcement of electronic use policies. Report Link Waiver of Privilege By Employees' Use of Company Email Systems To Communicate With Their Attorneys (pdf).Hughes Hubbard & Reed LLP - March 14, 2008 Employers now can use workplace policies governing the use of technology to defeat employees’
claims that email communications with their attorneys over the company’s computer systems are
privileged, according to a recent ruling by the New York County Supreme Court in Scott v. Beth
Israel Med. Ctr., Inc. In Scott, a hospital employee used his work email account to communicate with his personal attorneys. When he later sued Beth Israel for breach of contract, the hospital’s
attorneys found the communications on the hospital’s computer systems. The court denied the
employee’s motion for a protective order, and ruled that the employee waived the attorney-client
and work product privileges by using his work email account to communicate with his attorneys. Report Link Email Notice to Employees of Significant Policy Changes Is Not Sufficient, Says Federal Court.Jackson Lewis LLP - April 28, 2005 A recent decision of the U. S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts should give employers pause to consider what the effective means of communicating important information to employees are.
