An employee at Canada’s busiest airport has been disciplined after he was caught watching porn on the job, officials say.

The male employee was spotted watching porn on a laptop computer as he sat behind a cluttered desk inside Terminal 3 at Pearson International Airport on the weekend.

The person who spotted the man recorded video of him behind the desk and supplied the clip to CP24 on Monday.

In a statement to CP24, Scott Armstrong, a spokesman for the Greater Toronto Airports Authority, said the employee has been dealt with.

"This is absolutely unacceptable behaviour for any airport employee. The individual in question has been identified and disciplined,” Armstrong said in a statement.

Pearson officials would not confirm what department the employee works in or what kind of discipline he is facing.
