Shuster Solutions and Business
Every recent study on the topic of employee surfing
on the job comes to one common conclusion: Employees
spend TWICE AS MUCH TIME
SURFING AT WORK as they do at home.
While Internet access can be a
great tool to provide your employees, it also comes
with its own set of problems :
inappropriate surfing (pornography, chat, instant
messaging, etc...), spending too much time on non-work
related web sites, leaking company confidential information
via email or on anonymous chat boards, propagating
racially or sexually offensive emails, utilizing company
resources to engage in illegal or unethical activities.
Employees
who have Internet access at work average MORE
THAN ONE HOUR PER DAY SURFING the
INTERNET. Some employees spend THREE
HOURS PER DAY or MORE surfing.
Guess
what? They're not working when they're surfing!!!!

Control Exposure To Legal & Financial Hazards
LOST
PRODUCTIVITY is only one of the problems
with employees surfing.
POTENTIAL
LEGAL LIABILITY is a second major
problem.
What
happens when employees propagate racially or sexually
offensive e-mails and jokes?
What
happens if one of your employees using a company computer
to seduce a child over the Internet? If they use your
computers to gamble online?
LEAKING
OF COMPANY CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION
is the third big problem associated with uncontrolled
Internet access.
What
happens when an employee goes into financial chat
sites and starts leaking company secrets? When they
create rumors to try to manipulate your company's
stock price? When a disgruntled employee starts e-mailing
the competition your customer lists?
What can you do about this, short of taking away their
Internet access altogether?
You
could choose a filtering solution. But filtering is
well known to have three major problems: constant
updating, preventing access to totally legitimate
sites, and often allowing access to completely objectionable
sites.
And
how do people act when they know they are being watched?
They are on their best behavior. You can expect a
significant drop in the kinds of activities that threaten
the survival of your company.
You
will be able to quickly identify the employees who
are the worst offenders, and have the VISUAL proof
to handle the situation in the manner you deem most
appropriate.

you need to KNOW EXACTLY
what your employees are doing Online and Offline with
company computers! |
