Imagine that you are an IT consultant who has been given the task of preparing a report for the management board of a software house that is currently thinking of implementing electronic monitoring throughout its operations. Your task is to prepare a concise report (800-1,000 words, not counting title page and references) that considers the relevant issues in electronic monitoring and makes recommendations. Your report should include:
A discussion of the current trend to use electronic monitoring to measure employee productivity, bearing in mind the theories of Taylor and McGregor
The key ethical issues and the stakeholders involved
A recommendation to the management board about what it should do
You must justify your ideas and recommendations.
