Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Common law privacy protections offer some limitations on a private employer's regulation of off-work activities. However, there are exceptions to this protection, such as if the employee's behavior adversely affects the employer's business interests or if the employer has a legitimate interest in monitoring certain off-work activities. The Privacy Act of 1974 and the Fourth Amendment do not directly apply to private employers, and filing a complaint with the Privacy Protection Study Commission would not necessarily result in immediate limitations on an employer's regulation of off-work activities.
