All
I have a wee problem here...an employee made a SAR in December 2000.
Anyway, at the time another staff member had lodged an official complaint
about him which resulted in an investigation - part of that investigation
included e-mails being opened and printed by the Line Manager. Some of the
e-mails were correspondence with the TU rep which were not apparent to be of
a personal nature and anyway, the Council has an e-mail policy which states
that it is not to be used for personal e-mails. I am of the view that he
should have written outwith work and not used the e-mail system which as we
all know is not secure. We now have a generic e-mail address for the Union
but at that time we did not. There may also have been third party
confidentiality issues at that time. He now has a copy of the letter and
wants an explanation as to why he was not given it then. I am of the
opinion that at that time it was an ongoing investigation...can you help?
There may be an issue as to legal advice being sought from a legal adviser.
I would be most grateful for any help here.
