UK ICO Employment Practices and Data Protection: Monitoring Workers (2023) 1.4(a): 1.4(a) Choose the lawful basis for the specific purpose, document it from the start and do not switch later

The basis depends on the purpose and context; the employer must think about why it wants to monitor and pick the basis that best fits, must not use a one-size-fits-all approach, should identify and document every basis that applies from the outset, and should keep to it unless a good reason arises. A DPIA or the ICO's interactive tool can help.
