Guest: Karim Bardeesy, Toronto Metropolitan University As many Canadians moved from the office to work remotely due to the COVID-19 pandemic, there was an increase in electronic surveillance by employers and an increased demand for related technologies. The intrusive surveillance has been allowed as workers have limited privacy protections, but things might be changing in Ontario. The provincial government passed legislation in April requiring some employers to have an electronic monitoring policy and to disclose it to their employees. Karim Bardeesy, co-founder and executive director of the Leadership Lab at Toronto Metropolitan University, co-authored a report on workplace surveillance during COVID-19 and joins “This Matters” to discuss the significance of this legislation and the multiple ways our bosses could be keeping an eye on us. This episode was produced by Saba Eitizaz, Paulo Marques and Brian Bradley.
