UK ICO Employment Practices and Data Protection: Monitoring Workers (2023) 1.22: 1.22 Third-party monitoring providers: check compliance, choose a competent processor and have a contract

The employer decides how and why monitoring happens and remains responsible; it should not assume purchased packages or third-party software are compliant or designed with data protection in mind, and before starting it must ensure the system complies and that necessary contracts are in place. A provider acting only on written instructions is likely a processor; the employer must ensure it is competent and compliant and bind it by contract (or another legal act) setting out each side's responsibilities.
