Possibly. You need to provide more facts if what you intend to do in terms of monitoring. I suggest that you define exactly what you intend to do and where you intend to do it. This is not a simple question and will require research by any attorney before an opinion can be provided. You can expect to incur attorneys fees ranging from $250 to $750, possibly more. However, that cost is small compared to defending a lawsuit for invading privacy or possible criminal charges, not to mention the benefit of learning whether your employee is doing anything illegal that may cost your company business or income. Good luck.
