Covert CCTV to catch suspected thief violates their privacy rights

摘要

Ms Lopez Ribalda and four colleagues worked as cashiers at MSA, a supermarket chain. The manager of the supermarket identified significant discrepancies between the stock levels and what was supposedly being sold. In some months, the discrepancy was as much as €20,000. As part of an investigation, MSA installed surveillance cameras in the supermarket.
