From the Paper:
"Additionally, as technology continues to advance and new and novel ways of monitoring employees are conceived, the threat to workplace privacy seems certain to crossover directly to employees' personal privacy domains. One example of such new technologies being gradually adapted to employee surveillance and monitoring is the use and application of radio frequency identification (RFID) technology. RFID technology is a radio enabled computer chip that is now in widespread use in the retail and foodservice industries among many others, which allows for more accurate and better types of data regarding products to be tracked and recorded by allowing easy reading and scanning of these products without ever being handled. While the use of RFID technology in the workplace might seem far-fetched and it certainly is not in widespread use by any stretch of the imagination, the fact that some foreign governments such as Mexico's judicial branch have implanted an RFID chip in some workers in order to control access to sensitive areas of its facilities should be alarming."Sample of Sources Used:
