What employer? Why would your employer have a key to your room? Can you tell us your circumstances? I am assuming that you have been given a room in the home of an elder you are caring for?

Key to what room? Employer? Need more information, if you want an answer.

Landlords have keys to the apartents the tenants live in, but no I do not think asking for a key to the bedroom you will be sleeping in is appropriate.

When I employed in-home caregivers for my parents, the live-in caregiver could lock her bedroom door, and I didn't have a key. BUT - she chose mostly to sleep near the sick person's hospital bed at night in case there was a problem. If she had been in her bedroom with the door closed at any time, I'd have respected her privacy. I didn't think it would be proper to invade her personal space in my parents' home without permission from her.

My daughter's old room has a lock on the outside of her door and she could lock it from the inside. We did this because my grandson spent a lot of time at the house and she wanted to keep him out of her room. I still have a couple of keys to the door.

Have you been able to put your own lock on your room? If so, I would not want to give the owner a key either. The whole reason to have a lock is for privacy or to protect ur personal property. But, it is the employers home. This question is interesting and has never been asked in the whole time I have been on the forum. I think this is a question for the Labor Board.

This question is not answerable without more information. Who are you – the profile is empty. A live- in carer? Or an employer who wants sex in the middle of the night? A carer who is taking illegal drugs? Or an employer who worries that ‘missing’ jewellery is actually in the carer’s room? Nobody has any idea what this is about.

You have a title to a question with no body of information. What kind of answer can you expect, with no profile and no info at ALL? You put this 'question' under "Assisted Living". Shall we assume you are a resident in AL and want to know if the administration is allowed to have a key to your unit?

If so, the answer is YES, OF COURSE they are.
