Can an employer conduct an investigation on an employee using a company computer to run his or her personal business on?
Anyone can hire an investigator at any time to investigate another person for anything. The investigator must perform the investigation according to the local, state, and Federal Laws which constrain their activities and these laws vary widely from place to place. If the employer owns the computer, the computer can be examined (investigated) for activities not appropraite to the workplace. All of this can be done without the employee's permission or knowledge. The real question is whether you can be fired or disciplined for your activities. Most businesses have published standards and policies that provide clear guidelines of what is, and is not, acceptable use of the office computer. Without those clear guidelines, the employer may not be able to take action against you. Check with an attorney if you are faced with this situation.
