The short answer is probably yes, the recorded employee can start an action for damages as a result of being tape recorded without permission. I assume that your employment contract does not give the company the right to tape an employee without his/her permission. Please contact me to discuss the matter further: [email protected] or 610-353-8531. Regards, JIM PETERS
