Introduce and support legislation to limit employer collection, use, sale, and transfer of employee data, prohibit surveillance of protected or off-duty activity, and require worker data disclosures, access, correction, and review rights.

The Stop Spying Bosses Act would: Limit employer collection and use of employee data to what is strictly necessary for legitimate purposes; Prohibit employers from using employee data to surveil workers’ union activity, political or religious views, immigration status, or off-duty conduct; Require employers to disclose to workers what data is being collected, how it is being used, and who has access to it; Give workers the right to access and correct their own data, and to review the data used in work-related decisions made about them; and Prohibit employers from selling or transferring employee data to third parties.

Markey introduced the Stop Spying Bosses Act, which would regulate workplace surveillance and employee data collection, use, disclosure, access, correction, and transfer.
