[Histonet] surveillance cameras in the lab

[Weber, Susan (VHACLE)]

Was this through out the whole lab, or just Histology. The other departments may be interested in knowing they are being "observed" dare I say "watched", "spied upon", etc. It is highly unacceptable to me that there is no notification to the "workers" that big bro is hovering overhead. Also unacceptable is the fact that "they" are not giving a very good "reason" for the install. BTW- wear proper PPE so they can't tell who is "cleaning" that lens with the nice immersion oil.

I am not against the idea of the cameras...but I would definitely have an issue with no one being notified that they were going to be installed and why.

I thought about blacking out the lenses too.
The worst part of this whole situation is that the cameras suddenly appeared. The tech just happened to notice them. It is totally unacceptable to me that an institution would not inform the employees they were going to install cameras. This may be CYA for the powers that be. 
RUN!
