In any workplace that features Internet access, employee productivity is an issue, even if employers aren't aware of it. 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.

So, how much would business owners improve productivity at work if they decided to
monitor Internet use?
And for a savings $6,000 per year, per employee, it's an investment well worth making.
That's right, employee productivity is always heightened when employees know that their boss monitors Internet use, and if you've got 100 employees, you're looking at $600,000 in profits in a single year!
And, when employers use keystroke monitoring software to monitor Internet use, employees are more likely to avoid situations that will expose their company to spyware, phishing, pornographic materials, and more.
Employee productivity specialists also suggest that every business owner monitor Internet use, but also allow a certain amount of free Internet time per day, so as to maintain morale. It makes no sense to improve productivity at the expense of a happy and dependable workforce.
Awareness Tech's WebWatcher is a great example of
keystroke recording software that allows employers to improve productivity without seeming overbearing or controlling. It's easy to install and use, and completely invisible while running.
And for $6,000 per year, per employee, it's an investment well worth making.
