Yes, there are legal ways to monitor employee productivity remotely without their knowledge. Employee productivity can be monitored by using software programs that track the number of hours worked, keystrokes or mouse clicks, web browsing history and usage of applications. Tools such as these provide real-time updates that record time spent on tasks and document the progress of projects in order to maximize productivity. Additionally, implementing a secure VPN could also give you access to employees' screens at all times if needed in order to ensure they are working diligently.

Yes, employers have the legal right to monitor employee productivity remotely if they have a valid reason. This could include tracking activity on company computers or monitoring computer use for security purposes. However, employers cannot monitor employee productivity without their consent and must ensure that any monitoring procedures are clear and documented. They must also put measures in place to ensure employee privacy is respected.
