The capabilities are there. If they do it, should be an explicit part of your employment agreement that they do so though?
In one company I worked at we had software installed on all computers that logged all emails, chat sessions, etc.. and took periodic screenshots of the screen throughout the day and archived all that info. We never used any of the info, but it was there. We also told the employees that it was being done.
It can also be logged on firewalls and email servers.
