$9.$To facilitate employees being able to switch shifts, the employer$$which is federally regulated$$had an electronic employee scheduling program. This program allowed employees to view workplace leave information for all other employees in their unit, including the reason for an absence such as medical care, bereavement, or parental leave. Paul requested a leave but challenged the requirement to indicate the reason for it as that information then became available on the scheduling program. Paul made a complaint to the Office of the Privacy Commissioner.
