Irwin Kramer: If you think your email at the office is private. Think again.
Rochelle Eisenberg: I read people's private emails all the time as a lawyer. When they find that out there, they are surprised but my employer's clients turned them over to me and I read them.
Irwin Kramer: Contrary to popular belief, you don't have a right to privacy in office email even when you are sending a note to a friend.
Rochelle Eisenberg: I am appalled at the pornography that I have read, the inappropriate jokes, the inappropriate statements about the employer. You know, an employee writes to a coworker, my boss is a complete jerk, a total turkey. I don't think that person should be expecting a raise this year, maybe a letter of termination would be better.
Irwin Kramer: What gives the employer the right to review a private email?
Rochelle Eisenberg: It is the right of the employer to know what the employee is doing during the work day on the employer's equipment. Your savvier employers are monitoring the emails and they need to because if they don't, they may find to their chagrin that one employee has been sexually harassing another employee by email, has been making the same amatory comments, or is even looking for a job on your time via the email.
