The World Cup is the event of the year and millions of fans from all over the globe are going to be tuned in to watch their favorite teams battle it out for the solid gold trophy. The work place might suffer a bit because of distractions as fans watch the game and make football gamble bets rather than paying attention to their daily work. Some companies are seeing this as a rather grim situation and worry about the drop in productivity.
A plausible solution for the problem is installing Spector 360 Employee Monitoring, Reporting and Surveillance Software. C. Douglas Fowler, the president and founder of SpectorSoft stated that there is a great risk of drop in business profitability, productivity as well as corporate security during the World Cup and expects that there would be increased online gambling and sports betting during work hours.
Mr. Fowler said that it would be a good solution if companies established an “acceptable use policy” that allowed employees necessary flexibility without affecting productivity or security.
In a recent study it was revealed that over half of the local employees were planning to watch the World Cup games from their office computers in the UK. Several social networking sites are offering leader boards that rank teams on various factors and include users in several polls and other activities.
Spector 360 uses sophisticated employee monitoring technology and reporting features that allow management to know what employees do on their computer. With facilities like screen snapshot, easy-to-use reporting tools and software that can tell what has been done on each computer in the exact order of it being done, employees will have no other way but to stay focused on work and watch the replays of the match when they get back home.
Fifty thousand businesses, government organizations, schools and law enforcement agencies have already purchased Spector 360 products.
