Here is a big problem in answering your question for those of us familiar with this type of law. You do not mention what state you are in which is necessary to give you the correct statute. You have two issues here. The first being what are the privacy act laws of your state. Second: Were you and the staff made aware that you are being videotaped. Third: Is there sound on these tapes. As for them showing this tape to other employees without your consent definitely there is a major legal threshold which applies in 38 states that it cannot be shown without the persons consent. I suggest you meet with an attorney who specializes in privacy act laws and civil rights.

Is PA one of those states? Also, who in the work place is allowed to be privy to my social security number? Is it only my employer or other employees? What exactly is the definition of employer according to PA law? And can a business run a business out of another business according to PA law?

I work for a firm of solicitors in the UK I have been asked to prepare and present a talk on Anatony and Physiology for company solicitors to enable them to be more aware when dealing with medical claims. I have been told that it will be videoed and sent to people who have not been privy to the live talk . Do they need my consent ?
