NSW Workplace Surveillance Act 2005 for Risk Managers
What does NSW Workplace Surveillance Act 2005 require of a Risk Manager?
New South Wales law on how employers may watch employees through cameras, computer monitoring and tracking devices: 14 days' written notice, visible cameras and signs, a notified computer surveillance policy, tracking notices on vehicles, no surveillance in change rooms and bathrooms or outside work, rules on blocking email and websites and on using surveillance records, and covert surveillance only under a Magistrate's authority. Under NSW Workplace Surveillance Act 2005, which defines 17 controls, a Risk Manager's work is deciding which controls you own outright, which you share and which belong to another team, then holding the evidence for the first group.
