UK ICO Employment Practices and Data Protection: Monitoring Workers (2023) 3.4(a): 3.4(a) Email and message monitoring: a clear, necessary purpose, workers told, and a DPIA

Monitoring emails and messages (including chat in collaboration tools) to protect information, for security, to spot suspicious activity or to enforce acceptable use requires a clear purpose, necessity and proportionality, and informing workers of the purpose; the employer must complete a DPIA because it is high risk and likely to capture special category data.
