Part 3: Notified surveillance – ACT Workplace Privacy Act 2011

ACT Workplace Privacy Act 2011 13: s 13 Written notice of surveillance, 14 days ahead, with the required content

Workplace surveillance of a worker is lawful only after the employer has given that worker written notice under s 13, and only as the notice describes. Timing: no later than 14 days before the start date; or within a shorter period the worker accepts; or, where a new worker joins while surveillance is already running or due to begin inside 14 days, before their first day. Content: the type of surveillance device; the method; the people usually or routinely watched; the start date; continuous or intermittent operation; a fixed period or open-ended; what the employer may use and disclose the records for; and the worker's right under s 14 to consult the employer about how it is run. An employer policy can serve as the notice. Optical surveillance at a site the worker does not usually work at needs no notice. Failure to comply is an offence (s 18(1), 20 penalty units).

What else in your programme already covers this

This control maps to 3 controls across 2 other frameworks. If you already hold one of them, the evidence you collected for it is the starting point here rather than new work.

GDPR · 2 controls

  • GDPR-Art.13 Information to be provided where personal data are collected
  • GDPR-Art.88 Processing in the context of employment
  • APP-5 APP 5 - Notification of the collection of personal information

Every mapping shown was judged rather than inferred from wording similarity, and the ones that failed review are published too. See the coverage reports and what was rejected.
