Employee surveillance vs. monitoring: What's the difference?
Does monitoring employees mean spying on them? Imagine sitting at your desk, focused on your work, while everything you do is being tracked. Every keystroke, every website visit, and every moment away from your screen is recorded. Your employer knows which apps you open, how long you spend on an email, and even your real-time GPS location. Would you feel motivated or just uncomfortable? For many employees, the line between workplace monitoring and surveillance is unclear.
