| dc.description.abstract | New information and communication technologies not only allow but also make it inevitable that an increasing number of work duties are performed online. In this respect, the first regulation of its kind in EU legislation on the working conditions of platform workers (or the so-called Platform Workers Directive) is also indicative. Although beyond the scope of this study, it stands as indisputable proof of the importance of Internet communication today – something that only a few decades ago seemed like science fiction. A huge number of people around the world, including in our country, spend all or almost all of their working time in front of a computer or other electronic device, communicating predominantly with colleagues, managers, and third parties in an electronic environment. This situation necessitates an ongoing discussion about the limits of employer control over employee behaviour online. Formulated more generally, this question can also be put as follows: how far does the employer’s freedom to control his employees by technical means extend? | |
