Why teams push back — and why that’s normal
Time tracking and employee monitoring tools like Hubstaff have faced their fair share of flak over the years, and rightfully so.
In the wrong hands, employee monitoring tools are ripe with potential for micromanagement. It’s no wonder teams are resisting, quiet quitting, or ultimately leaving jobs altogether when they don’t feel trusted to perform day-to-day job functions.
That’s where our guide to team buy-in comes in handy. Think of it as your solution for articulating your intentions with employee monitoring software, sharing the benefits for your employees, and fostering trust and transparency across your business.
What’s in it for your team?
It’s no secret that employee monitoring software is intended to appease remote team managers, business owners, HR professionals, and other high-level positions — but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t have benefits for your team like:
One-click timesheet submissions
Streamlined PTO requests
Increased visibility into workloads
