Part 2: implementing provisions for processing under the GDPR (employment, special categories, rights, private-sector DPOs) – Germany Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG)

Germany Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG) s26-1-s2: s 26(1) sentence 2 Investigate suspected crimes by employees only on documented suspicion and proportionately

Employees' data may be processed to uncover criminal offences only where documented factual indications support a suspicion that the person committed an offence in the employment relationship, the processing is necessary to uncover it, and the employee's legitimate interest in exclusion does not prevail, in particular because the kind and extent of the measure are not disproportionate to the occasion. The rule governs covert measures such as hidden cameras, keystroke logging or targeted mailbox review in an internal investigation: blanket or suspicion-free covert monitoring does not meet it.
