Final Answer :
E
Explanation :
The Bill of Rights does not directly guarantee private-sector employees' privacy rights against their employers, as it primarily restricts governmental actions. The U.S. Supreme Court has made rulings that affect privacy rights, but it has not provided blanket protections for private-sector employees. Privacy legislation often aims to control how personal information is handled but does not universally guarantee employees control over their information. Administrative laws may offer some protections, but they do not universally protect private-sector employees' privacy from their employers.
