Can an employer obtain personal information about an employee who has used a corporate fitness membership?
Canada (Federal), Canada
The following excerpt is from Stevens v. SNF Maritime Metal Inc., 2010 FC 1137 (CanLII):
The present case is similar to that of Randall v. Nubodys Fitness Centres, 2010 FC 681, where the employer obtained information about the number of times an employee had used a corporate fitness membership. While a breach of PIPEDA was found, it was at the low end of sensitivity of personal information.
