Is it normal for a California employer to include a very detailed notice in the employee handbook about employee monitoring practices and the company’s right to search your stuff? Or do I need to look for a new job immediately….. 🚩

It’s a law in CA

Pretty standard most places. Many large companies post notices like this even if they don’t actively monitor. If there was a cyber incident it’s normal for response teams to bump up against user information on systems, these notices cover that.
