    If you find it, take it out and move it to the womens toilet..... then report him.

    why would it be illegal many firms use cctv etc?, in fact why do you think it's the boss? i have heard of the police installing such equipment to aid companies in catching thieves etc.
    What exactly makes you think this?
    soz bout above as i don't want to make you paranoid, you could always just try asking him and if he admits it well, not a nice working environment and i would be tempted to seek employment elsewhere, but if the job was more important simply behave and give him no reason to use it.

    Probably paranoia, but I swear that my boss has bugged our office. Does anyone know what I should look for?

    First of all your boss is breaking the law - fact.
    Second if you can find a device make sure you photograph it and report him to the police, it is illegal.

    :confused:

    We don't even know if the boss has bugged the office - fact.

    Oh here we go with the attitude, well having been involved in installing covert surveillance equipment and understanding the "LAW" surrounding the subject, unless you have a clearly visible notice situated on the premises that you using recording devices and more so "hidden" recording devices then you are breaching the DPA and will get fined - heavily. - FACT! ;)
