Why active and idle time monitoring?
Employees can easily get distracted at work – chatting, surfing the net for personal purposes, visiting social networking sites, or taking long coffee breaks during the hours they are paid to be active. This could lead to the misuse of working hours and money loss. To put it more precisely, Harvard Business School conducted a study that found that businesses lose over $100 billion every year in wages paid to employees for idle time. Hence, the need for employers to monitor:
- Employee Idle time, which is the time spent away from one’s PC/laptop.
- Employee Active time; the time spent on PC/laptop performing work-related activities.
