Hi Sahil,
The company is distributing iPads for use in our daily work, but they are equipped with a tracking system for locations. Can the company do this activity? Is it authorized? Nowadays, everything is coming with tracking locations, from domains to iPads and computers. It has become easy to locate the same. In MNCs, many precautions are taken to safeguard one's systems and packages.

Hi,
During working hours, they may track you, depending on your nature of work, but after working hours, they are not legally authorized to trespass on your privacy. You may leave your iPad in the office itself to maintain your privacy, and you can refuse to carry it with you when you are off duty. The company may not afford to lose your services when you are off duty because in today's scenario, we do a lot of office work at home. They may discontinue the tracking system in the interest of getting employees' services while off duty.
Let me tell you that we can be tracked even when we have our personal mobile phone, even if it is in switch-off mode, provided the SIM card is not removed. Hence, it is just your apprehension that the company is invading your privacy, but from their point of view, they are safeguarding their interests and nothing else.
Thanks

Hi,
The new company has acquired all resources from the previous company, including manpower; hence, the terms and conditions of your service remain the same. Any company may transfer its resources to another location for better utilization, including manpower. Generally, companies consider employees' problems on humanitarian grounds; otherwise, they may transfer you to any location where they have facilities. These conditions are typically included in the service terms.
New conditions are not added unless there is a change in your previous appointment/position. If your position is changed, new terms and conditions are added along with a new appointment letter.
Thank you.
