Stop Spying Bosses Act

This bill would limit how employers with 11 or more workers, including government employers, collect and use data about workers and job applicants. Employers could not use worker data to track union activity, immigration status, health or political views, and could not collect data while workers are off duty, such as in break rooms, restrooms, or at home. Employers would have to tell workers what data they collect and why, let workers see and correct their data, and could not sell worker data. The bill would create a Worker Protection and Technology Division in the Department of Labor and let workers, unions, and state attorneys general sue over violations.
