It is easy today è^' and it will be more so in the future è^' for employers to acquire, store, and transfer employeesè^- personal information through electronic devices. Accordingly, employee privacy has become a keen legal issue among developed countries in recent years. All agree that there should be effective legal measures to protect employees from improper collection and/or use of their personal information while still paying due consideration to employersè^- valid business necessities. Some countries have tackled this issue with special legislation, while others have relied primarily on constitutional law or tort law.
