Yes. But not in the locker changing area or the restrooms. So just behave normally, and you have nothing to worry about. Like the proverbial "cop in the mirror" if you are not doing anything wrong, you've nothing be guilty for.

The laws on this vary from state to state, and can be overiden by working agreements or contracts.
Yes and No.
In most instances, the subject of a recording must be aware of the possibility of recording to void a reasonable expectation of privacy. In Massachusetts, it's against the law to record (visual, audio, or both) an individual without their consent.

Apparently, in many parts of the country they can and do.
The laws that govern this are state laws... but most employers do whatever they deem in their own best interest, knowing that courts will usually side with them over employees.

As long as it is not in the bathrooms, they have every right to video tape their employees.

They have to post a sign saying that the area is being monitored by cameras. They cant use them in locker or rest rooms.

It depends on where the employer is videotaping. If it is in a bathroom, locker room or any place where reasonable privacy is expected, that is illegal. Other than that, they can tape where they want.

They can it is their property you work on. However they can't tape private things (like restroom stalls.) They do this for many reasons, mostly to look for screw offs, but security is the reason they usually give.

In a word... NO!
O.K. ...... "Anyone" recording audio or video ( conducting audio or video surveillance ) MUST, display signage in plain sight of ANY person entering any room or any building that uses such security measures.
That's the LAW. see: Privacy Act

As far as I know they do. Not in the restroom, but otherwise yes.
