An employer needs to know if his or her employee is performing criminal activities on the job. Unless the computer is owned by the employee, the employer has every right to note what type of internet information — his or her employee is engaging on regarding the internet.

It is a liability on the company’s part — if the employee is engaging in some illegal act regarding the internet. The internet is used for employment purposes only — at most jobs — and people should not have the time anyway — to engage in entertainment minutes on the internet. The employer is expecting that his or her employee — is performing their job because they are getting paid for a service.

Internet crime is dangerous and the more access a person has to the internet the increased chances that a crime may be committed. Not every employee is going to commit an internet crime but one does hear of pornography being surfed at job sites; such as hospital settings; on the news these days.

Personal emails should be kept for home use, and are not a part of any employer’s needs regarding productivity on the job. No one should be allowed to have a joy ride at work concerning the internet.
