Yes, monitoring employee activity on company computers is legal, as long as the employer notifies the employees of the monitoring policy and does not exceed legal boundaries. Employers are allowed to monitor employee activity on their computers in order to ensure security and efficiency. However, some states may have laws regulating exactly how this information can be used. It is best to consult with a local attorney regarding your specific circumstances before you begin any type of monitoring.
