Grand Canyon University ACM and IEEE Codes of Ethics Monitoring Employees Paper

 

I’m working on a writing discussion question and need a sample draft to help me understand better.

Assume you have a position as database administrator in a large corporation. The company has been collecting data about employees, including monitoring their working habits by recording their keystrokes, timing their telephone interactions with clients, and scanning their e-mail for personal correspondence. As database administrator (DBA), you are asked to help establish a record-keeping system to store such data. Does the company have a legal right to perform this kind of monitoring? Explain your professional responsibility in this situation. Discuss provisions within the ACM and IEEE Codes of Ethics that can be used to guide you.
