I started with the company in 2004 and about two years later I was fired because I had a conflict with my supervisor at the time. About 7 months later the owner of the company called my and asked me to come back to work for him and offered me more money and promised that I would not have any type of contact with that person. I now answer directly to him. She and I have very limited contact since our responsibilities with the company have nothing to do with each other. Anyway a few days ago I was having a conversation with one of my friends that is no longer employed here because she moved, well she is coming back and asked me if I thought that the company would take her back since she left in good terms…well needless to say she listen to my conversation and asked my boss if he was thinking on hiring her back, well he came back to me and asked me to be very careful on the phone because I had put him in a difficult situation…whatever that means. Now today a friend forward me a voice mail that one of our clients had left her complaining about our secretary, all he did was yell and said that she was a retard and he hung up the phone…so my friend forwarded it to me because it was funny…well she listened to my voice mail and confronted my friend regarding the message and asked her to never do that again because we are a family and we do not make fun of each other…whatever. So here is my questions, we all know that all the conversations are recorded in the company, but is it ok for her to listen to private voice mails and private conversations that have nothing to do with work?

If the company is allowing her to listen to the phone lines, then yes, she can listen to ANY converation.
You are using company equipment to make the calls.
The same goes for email and documents that you keep on your work computer.

At a company where I used to work, they said that all voice mails and e-mails were considered company property and that you had no expectation of privacy in the workplace. I think it is morally wrong what your coworker did, but it is up to your boss to decide if what she did violates company policy. Sorry, wish I could help more.

It is legal, since they own the telephone and voice mail. Just the same way the can monitor what you do on the internet. Check the company privacy policy and it will tell you everything you want to know.

The 23 year previous became enticing in Stalking habit. yet till your daughter tells him to flow away her on my own then no regulation has been broken different than for perhaps Harassment. turn over the textual content fabric messages on your daughter's criminal expert. The 23 year previous is tampering with a witness and committing extortion. I do locate one element approximately this very bizarre. The 23 year previous alleges your daughter and her bf vandalized his motor vehicle. however the police did no longer meet with you daughter and question her first. that's bizarre via fact what in the journey that your daughter has an air tight alibi? If the police met along with her, then they might have shown the alibi and that would desire to be it. it seems to me the police jumped the gun and wasted a ton of police and court docket time. the place I stay the police do no longer perform in that way till there are witnesses or another data which could place a suspect on the scene. Your daughter desires to deliver this guy a qualified letter telling him not greater touch era in any way shape or form. She desires to inform him that's over for good. She would desire to additionally grant the police a duplicate of this letter. If he contacts her, then she desires to checklist each element of the touch alongside with witnesses. with the intention to construct a Stalking case, documentation is rather significant. what's maximum extreme is this guy desires to be conscious of his interest isn't needed in any way shape or form.

make sure you review your privacy policy in your company. Theres no such thing as privacy when you are using company computer or phone for that matter. Tell your frien when she wants to leave you a private msg tell her to call in your cell phone.
