Work-from-home boom leads to more surveillance
It’s old-fashion management. If you don’t understand your employees workload and don’t trust them then either you resign or fire the employees. Simple as that.<p>I don’t see how this makes any employee productive. This adds more stress imo. An employee gives you 8 of their 12 hour day. Now, you tell me if that works only for you - the management. They’re people just like you. They have a life just like you. They have responsibilities similar to you. They might have a family similar to you. There’s no fucking way they can manage all this, giving you a focused 8 hour. They might need a few mins to pay a bill, lookup a medication, place a personal Online order. And many other activities that come with “living”, being alive.<p>I am certain most managers that implement this are antisocial fucks. It’s poor management. Uneducated decision making.<p>Now, it does has its place. For example in highly secured environments or when dealing with highly sensitive documents. But for a small or regular office, no!<p>HR&#x2F;Payroll companies such as ADP and Insperity need to start setting ground rules. I know that they’re in favor of the employer, however, it would make good on them.
