2023-04-09

This case study examines how the Spyrix Employee Monitoring program helped a manager improve his employees' declining productivity levels by identifying those spending excessive time on non-work-related activities during working hours. The manager noticed that some workers took much longer to complete tasks than before. He was unsure of the cause and decided to implement Spyrix Employee Monitoring. The software helped him identify the issue and quickly rectify it, and, consequently, improve efficiency.

The company in question is a mid-sized organization with a team of 20 employees. The manager had noticed a decline in productivity among some of his employees: a routine task took them two or three times longer than usual. There were no evident reasons for such a drop, and the manager started seeking the cause. His first step was to find out where the employees' work time goes. So, he installed the Spyrix Employee Monitoring program on all workstations to gain insights into how employees managed their time during work hours.

Spyrix Employee Monitoring allowed the manager to monitor employees' computer activities. The program was designed to be unobtrusive, ensuring its work does not disrupt employees during their day. The manager then began receiving monitoring reports containing detailed information on each employee's activities, including visited websites, applications used, and time spent on each.

Upon reviewing the monitoring reports, namely, the screenshots and browser history, the manager discovered that a few employees watched the latest and extremely popular series on Netflix during working hours instead of focusing on their tasks. This fact explained the increased time spent on tasks and the decline in productivity.

Upon identifying the issue, the manager addressed the problem with the employees in question. He strictly reminded them of the importance of focusing on work tasks during office hours and adhering to company policies. The employees received a warning that any further infractions could result in disciplinary action.

After addressing the issue with the employees, the manager noted a significant increase in productivity levels. The team's efficiency improved as employees refocused on their work duties, and the previously observed delays in task completion were reduced. The manager continued using Spyrix Employee Monitoring as a tool to maintain a productive working environment and ensure adherence to company policies.

This case study demonstrates the effectiveness of the Spyrix Employee Monitoring program in identifying and addressing productivity issues within a workplace. By providing detailed information on employee activities during working hours, the program allowed the manager to pinpoint the cause of declining productivity and take the necessary steps to rectify the situation. As a result, the team's efficiency improved, and a more productive work environment was established.
