description | The Internet of Things (IoT) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) are overexposing the employee under the employer scrutiny.

In fact, looking at the ECtHR’s jurisprudence it is possible to theorise that the Court’s margin of appreciation may be stricter in safeguarding employees’ privacy and essential labour rights when the surveillance measure interferes with individual and collective autonomy of the workforce. |
