Dutch employee fired by U.S. firm for shutting off webcam awarded €75K in court
Unpopular opinion: decisions like this hurt European workers. As an employer with 270 full time employees and many more contractors, I simply will not hire people in the EU and especially not in Netherlands because of the legal risks from a government with too many regulations.<p>An employer should be free to use webcam monitoring (no different than if the employee was in person with a supervisor nearby).
