    Can you elaborate? Is it illegal to have security cameras in a business if that means that an employee may be on it?

      It’s illegal, at least in my country, to use your camera to keep an eye on your employees. You can only view it in case of illegal activities, for example something being stolen, etc. You also cannot save the footage for more than a certain amount of time, unless it needs to be used for an investigation of said illegal activities. I think it was 2 weeks, but I’m not sure.

      Using the camera to check up if your employees are working is illegal.
