Geoff Mason speaks on use of tracking software to monitor employee productivity on The Jas Johal Show

A recent decision by the B.C. Civil Resolution Tribunal ordered an employee to reimburse her employer for time theft. Geoff Mason appears on The Jas Johal Show to discuss this case and the use of technology by employers to monitor employee performance:
