New policy was just sent out. Turns out the rumors here about policing coffee badgers were actually legit. Who woulda thunk?

Maybe they're re-install the badge readers they had from 2000-2008, where they looked like airport metal detectors and automatically read your badge when you entered a building. They can do the same when you leave.
They could also very easily install facial recognition cameras at all entrance/exits. They already have cameras at every entrance/exist, so upgrading to facial recognition isn't really a stretch.
For those of us who do not interact with anyone on-site, this is not an effective policy. Not empowering manager discretion makes the policy seem punitive, rigid at best. Feels almost like a CPM in disguise
Here's hoping all of the time-stealing slackers that complain about it get laid off.
No info on how they're tracking it. Obviously they already are - and it could be anything (or a combination) of the badge-in + facial recognition (there are cameras everywhere, sometimes you pass 3-5 in as many seconds while entering), internet traffic and VPN use, badge RFID, etc.
Omitting that info is probably deliberate - you can't try to beat the system or stick to the baseline requirements if you don't know what they are or how they work.
It's logical to assume they already have info and will be using it against you.
@a6 Who has this data I know first and second line mangers don’t ? Maybe HR? then why are they use badge swipe data to track?
They already have the data on who’s laptop is connected to office VPN for x number of hours
Hard to inforce when your manager does not work at your site , how are they going to track. I work around many mangers in cube next to mine and they are hardly there them selves. We will see how all this plays out. There are lots of cube around me of people I have never seen in the office 😂
Honestly this su-ks, things are working as they are
Maybe wifi? That's hard to spoof
@a1 it’s not clear how they are going to track it, which makes it all the more re--rded
How are they gonna track?
