In this podcast, Shareholder Michael McKnight (Raleigh) and
Associate Lauren Watson (Raleigh) discuss the primary privacy
challenges that manufacturers face, including pitfalls and best
practices surrounding employee monitoring, biometric data
collection, and information storage, especially when employers use
tools enabled with artificial intelligence (AI) to surveil
employees. In addition, Lauren and Michael discuss how
manufacturers can comply with various state and sector-specific
privacy laws and provide practical tips for manufacturers
responding to data breaches. Michael and Lauren offer valuable
insights on how manufacturers can balance the need to comply with
the various privacy laws, protect their employees'—and
the employers' own—data and devices, and efficiently run
their manufacturing businesses in an increasingly tech-forward but
regulated environment.
