Answer 1

The correct answer is letter "D": An employer has right to monitor telephone conversations in the ordinary course of business without a court order.

Step-by-step explanation:

Most companies handle their customer service operations through phone calls in contact centers. There, a typically large number of people work assisting the company's clients with their needs in regards to the company's product. To ensure those employees are providing clients with the right help, employers tend to monitor the calls for quality assurance purposes. Since this monitor or in some cases recording takes place under business conditions, there is no need for a court order.
