Can a tracking device legally be used to see where your staff are?

Can a tracking device legally be used to see where your staff are?
If your staff drive a company vehicle or use a company laptop, phone or other equipment that can be installed with such a device - the answer is yes: They can track any equipment they own. If the equipment is assigned to an employee, and a reasonable person would expect the employee to be using the equipment at the time it sends location data - that is perfectly legal.An employer CANNOT put an ankle bracelet or other tracking device on any person. This would be a clear violation of your right to privacy.
