You do see the problem here, right? As an employee, great that there’s a webinar planned on stress management, but if I now have to work an hour later that day in order to attend the webinar, it’s not helping. Lots of HR departments are making tools available, but managers are still expecting the same amount of work, with the same crazy deadlines and expectations, from a likely short-staffed team, so who has time to use them?

Some more random thoughts on workplace monitoring: – Your relationship with your employees shouldn’t be antagonistic. They aren’t “out to get you”.
