Depends upon where you live. Maryland, for example, explicitly outlaws the unkown tape recording of any party. It is not only inadmissable as evidence, it is a punishable felony. Even if you reside in a state that allows one party knowledge of a tape recording, if you signed an employee conduct and rules agreement upon your hire, and it prohibits the use of tape recordings, then it will also be inadmissable. If the company where you work is relatively large, then you most likely did sign such an agreement.

that is not any longer a actuality that atheists carry guilt and Christians do no longer. "Guilt is an evolutionary mechanism meant to help with the renovation of species by ability of inflicting people who've harmed different people to give up with the adverse habit. it incredibly is a persevering with reminder that such strikes are undesirable and guilt left intact ensures that such habit is decreased heavily." I don;t think of which you comprehend Christianity ok - Believing in God would not eliminate any human instinct. consequently, I disagree. This Christian lives with a marvelous type of guilt. i might never declare to be greater ethical than every physique - nor might I ever declare to comprehend what others are or are no longer feeling to blame for. Cheers.

It doesn't matter...I would anyway, not just to use in a legal sense, but if it's your word against theirs in an inhouse complaint, like to the HR department. It will only bolster your position. I would also maintain a daily journal with dates and times of the incidents to support your case. The more ammunition you have on your side, the more effective you will be in proving your case, even if it never goes to the legal system.
In the event you do have to take legal action, if the tapes support your written record, then it may be of use in your case.
It would also make a great piece if audio if your company fails to take action and you send it to your local media...and besides, if it's happening to you, then it probably is happening to someone else, or has happened to someone else who did not take to steps to obtain evidence to support their complaint.
The most important thing is that you take whatever action necessary to protect yourself.

Any activity done on company property (computer, phones, in the hallways) is subject to observation. There is no expectation of privacy. The appropriate action to take here, however, is to contact your HR department. If you have no HR department, or no one higher than your supervisor to go to, you should get an attorney to explore your legal options.

Strictly speaking....no....and it wouldn't be admissable evidence anyway. Nobody could stop him copying the tape and 'distributing' it around the work-place, maybe a few clients, friends, family etc.
