Yesterday the Law Institute of Victoria appeared at the Vic Parliamentary Inquiry into Workplace Surveillance. It is time to reform workplace surveillance laws, to balance the competing public interests of protecting employees’ privacy rights whilst managing workplace health and safety (but without causing an unreasonable burden on business.) Thankfully, the blueprint for reform already exists in other parts of the country. The LIV thanks the Economy and Infrastructure Committee for their thoughtful and considered questions. Thank you to the members of the LIV Workplace relations committee who assisted with the preparation of our submission, my colleague Chris Molnar, and the LIV Policy Team, Michelle Luarte and Dafni Samuni.
