Ontario Private Investigator Practice Exam

Should employees sign a release acknowledging their computer activities may be monitored?

1. Yes, always

2. No

3. Only if monitoring is on individual computers

4. Only if the monitoring is on the server

The correct answer is: Yes, always

It is important for employees to acknowledge and understand that their computer activities may be monitored by their employer. This helps to establish a clear understanding and expectation of privacy in the workplace. Option B is incorrect because employees may still be monitored even if they do not sign a release. Option C is incorrect because monitoring can occur on shared networks or devices. Option D is incorrect because monitoring can also occur on individual computers. Therefore, signing a release is necessary in all cases.
