How To Monitor Employees

How to monitor employees' computer activities

? There are many different methods, but the best one is to use third-party software. Right, exactly third -party software, not a web-based system, not cameras etc. For more than 10 years on the market we came to this conclusion while communicating with our customers.

Why do we think this is the best method? Because employee monitoring is a very sensitive area. There are many different concerns on both employers and employees sides. Employers, for example, worry about the monitoring results being secured, about not being sued by the employees (so, employees' privacy is also very important). At the same time employers need to keep up a good performance level. So, there are plenty of criteria that have to be met in order to make employee monitoring possible for an employer. From an employee side there are, of course, privacy concerns, also healthy working environment is very important. And imagine if an employer uses cameras to monitor employees. It is not comfortable for an employee if his every movement is recorded. At the same time in the most of cases the information recorded by cameras is overkill at certain points and not enough for performance monitoring. When speaking of web-based systems, employers can literally forget about monitoring result being secured as all results are stored outside of the company. And this is of course a serious concern. Especially when speaking of health care and insurance services, also when it comes to police and military organizations. And all these concerns can be solved when using third-party software ( http://www.nestersoft.com/worktime/articles/how_to_monitor_employee.shtml ).

So, how can you monitor employees using third-party software? At first, make a list of your goals and concerns and select a proper software system (like WorkTime by NesterSoft - http://www.nestersoft.com/worktime/articles/how_to_monitor_employee.shtml ). There is plenty of choice on the market and this is good to know that a huge amount of products are not focused on performance monitoring but more on spying (like passwords, keystrokes, screens recording, emails/chats content capturing and more). When you have your goals and requirements clearly defined, this will help you to choose a good employee monitoring software. Then, when you have the software of your choice, all you need is to install it in your company (important: on your servers, on your computers, not somewhere else). After that you just automatically receive reports about employees' performance. If using a good product, employee monitoring is a very easy to solve task: try WorkTime to see what a good employee monitoring system is. With WorkTime you can benefit in many ways. For example, you can improve employees' attendance, you can get accurate timesheets from the employees, you can decrease Internet personal use, and save money as a result. You can improve your business in many aspects.
