To use monitoring software in an ethical way, consider the following tips: 

- Provide clear expectations and protocols with employees to inform them of the monitoring.
- Inform employees in advance about all the technology you are using, including what it is used for and when. 
- Develop guidelines for how employee information will be used - ensure it is only accessed for legitimate purpose and not used to single any employee out unfairly. Also consider introducing anonymous reporting systems to ensure that issues can be raised confidentially. 
- Invest time in helping workers understand why it is necessary and develop plans to help boost efficiency without relying heavily on monitoring technology

To make sure monitoring software is used in an ethical way, it’s important to have a clear policy in place that outlines how and when it can be implemented. Companies should also inform their employees about the policy so they are aware of the guidelines. Additionally, companies should monitor activities in an unobtrusive manner and provide employees with feedback to help them become more efficient without feeling micromanaged or like their privacy has been violated. It’s also important for the business to adhere to any local laws regarding workplace monitoring.
