I have been reading every post and comment that appears so far, and just super curious to know how some of you are so headstrong in the belief that the remote workers are only working 2 hours but getting paid for 8.
If you’re not a supervisor or a manager, perhaps you’re paying too much attention to other people’s work, and need to focus on your own.
If you are in a leadership position and notice an issue with an employee slacking off. Maybe actually act like a leader. I know it sounds crazy, but actually reach out and offer the support you are required to.
With the ability to track keystrokes, mouse clicks, and calls/ tasks completed. No one is doing only 2 hours of work. If they are, however doing the bare minimum, that’s a team and leadership issue, as well as an overall company issue of not providing a reason why someone needs to work harder.
So in summary, don’t get upset someone isn’t willing to create unnecessary stress on themselves to hit 100% product and quality which will I turn burn themselves out. So they decide this is a job to clock in, clock out and meet the productivity quota at the lowest end.
If the company didn’t want employees doing that they wouldn’t set that threshold to begin with.
If you’re upset because you think you’re working harder than most. I promise you, if you’re focusing on others work and pay and have the time to come on here to be mean. You’re not a hard worker. Not even close.
