In the state of florida can an employer look through your desk and drawers?

Question

Eventhough the employee is not present and isn't aware of that happening nor that there's even an investigation going on?

Answer 1

Yep. Not just the State of Florida, but in every business in the US.

The property (office, desk, chairs, etc.) belongs to the employer. They have every right to inspect their property at any time.

It's the employers desk and drawers....not yours. The employer can do anything he wants with his possessions.

If you chose to bring personal material to work and store it in his drawers....that's the breaks.
