Content filtering is a necessity in today's business world for boosting productivity and preventing legal liability. Statistically, companies that offer Internet access to employees without instituting an
content filtering program are losing about $6,000 per year, per employee!
It's true – recent poll results have found that 61% of employees admit to using the Internet at work for non-work related issues (but there's likely quite a bit more). These include shopping, reading news, banking, gambling, downloading inappropriate materials, and even applying for new jobs.

These individuals spend so much time surfing the net at work, that for any workplace that offers Internet access, you can bet that 25% of the time your employees are not working. That's 2 hours a day, every day.
And then there's liability to contend with. When employers use
content filtering software to control and limit Internet use, employees are more likely to avoid situations that will expose their company to inappropriate materials. Associates who use company computers to view inappropriate materials on the Internet can lead your organziation straight to a sexual harassment case.
Good supervision in the workplace begins with controlling Internet access. With Awareness Tech's WebWatcher, employers and administrators can set custom content filtering policies to manage employee internet, network, and application use to balance work-related and personal internet use.
