1Opinion of the Court
SELYA, Circuit Judge.
As employers gain access to increasingly sophisticated technology, new legal issues seem destined to suffuse the workplace. This appeal raises such an issue. In it, plaintiffs-appellants Hector Vega-Rodríguez (Vega) and Amiut Reyes-Rosado (Reyes) revile the district court’s determination that their employer, the Puerto Rico Telephone Company (PRTC), may monitor their work area by means of continuous video surveillance without offending the Constitution. 1 Because the red flag of constitutional breach does not fly from these ramparts, we affirm.
