NSW Workplace Surveillance Act 2005 s16: s 16 No surveillance with a work device while the employee is not at work

The employer does not use a work surveillance device (a device used to watch the employee at work) to carry out surveillance of the employee at any time the employee is outside what s 5 counts as being at work (neither at a workplace of the employer nor elsewhere performing its work). The exception is computer surveillance of the employee's use of equipment or resources the employer provided or paid for. Law enforcement agencies as employers are outside the section. Up to 50 penalty units.
