My employer is monitoring me
De stapsgewijze juridische uitleg is nog niet geverifieerd in het Nederlands, en wordt hieronder daarom in het Engels getoond. De interface is in het Nederlands.
Were you informed about the monitoring before it started?
Yes, I was told
Being told is the minimum, not the whole test. Monitoring must also be lawful, fair and proportionate (Art. 5(1)(a) GDPR) — and for employment, the detailed rules are set by national law under Article 88, so what is allowed differs between member states.
If the monitoring feels broader than needed for a legitimate purpose (e.g. constant screen recording, private messages read), ask your employer for its legal basis in writing, and raise it with your works council or union, the labour inspectorate, or your Data Protection Authority. Which route is strongest depends on your country — this portal won't pretend the answer is uniform.

Wat u nu kunt doen
For workplace monitoring, the labour inspectorate and your union are additional routes — employment data rules are partly national (GDPR Art. 88).
