7.3 The Parties agree that any type of surveillance, by its very nature, represents an invasion of privacy. Therefore, the Board has an onus to justify the introduction of any type of surveillance devices onto the campuses.
7.4 The Parties recognize that the safety of Members, staff, learners and the general public may require the violation of individual privacy through the installation of video cameras, audio recorders or other monitoring devices in public access areas of the campus such as parking lots and garages, walkways, building entrances, exits and hallways. Any area subject to such surveillance shall be identified by a posted notice to that effect.
7.5 Before surveillance devices are installed, the Board shall seek the advice of the Union and the health and safety committees to determine the necessity of, and the appropriate location for, the placement of such monitoring devices.
7.6 Video cameras, audio recorders or other monitoring devices which are used for surveillance purposes shall not be placed in labs or used during teaching in classrooms without the Union's consent. The Union's consent shall not be unreasonably denied. These surveillance devices shall not be placed within a Member's office, or analogous personal work space without the consent of that Member. Any area subject to such surveillance must be identified by a posted notice to that effect.
7.7 Information obtained through surveillance devices shall not be used against Members at any time unless such information constitutes evidence of serious or gross misconduct including misconduct that may constitute evidence of criminal acts. In such cases Article 2.11 (Disciplinary Measures other than Dismissal) shall apply. However, in no case shall any discipline through surveillance devices, or facts on which the Board relied on imposing discipline through surveillance devices, be used as part of conversion, renewal, promotion, tenure or reappointment recommendations or decisions save for cases of academic misconduct where the facts bear directly on the merits of the application in which case these facts may be introduced.
