Electronic Monitoring vs. Health Concerns Is privacy and electronic monitoring in the work place an issue that is becoming a problem? More and more employees are being monitored today then ever before and the companies that do it aren't letting off. While electronic monitoring in the work place may be the cause of increased stress levels and tension, the benefits far exceed the harm that it may cause. Employees don't realize how often electronic monitoring happens in their work place. An estimated
being monitored? This is a reality for some offenders. An electronic monitoring system is agreed to as an alternative to a locked facility. This electronic device that is used to monitor the particular location at a specific time of a particular individual is called an electronic monitoring or tagging. Electronic monitoring is also used for home confinement or house arrest (Champion, 1992). This paper will discuss what an electronic monitoring is, its orientation, and the types of signaling devices
employees’ performance (Ludwig & Goomas, 2010, p. 393). The technologies also help these organizations to evaluate employees based on their performance. One of such technologies is the electronic performance monitoring, which is the latest advancement (Lliopis, Gonzalez, & Gasco, 2005, p. 215). The electronic performance monitoring (EPM) advancement refers to application of technology to check what employees do while at work. In other words, this technology monitors workers’ productivity output, which includes
Electronic Fetal Monitoring Technology has had a very prominent influence on electronic fetal monitoring since its appearance in the 1960’s and 1970’s. For many years, fetal monitoring was simply done by listening to a fetal heartbeat through a stethoscope. Dramatic changes in the heartbeat, such as a long period or a drop in the rate or intensity, could be detected,. Now, not only is the electronic fetal monitor used on the outside of the womb by strapping electrodes to the mother’s abdomen
According to Gentile et al, “Children spend more time with electronic usage than they do in any other activity, aside from sleep.” (E1) Although we may think there are not a lot of negative outcomes from electronic usage, there is more than meets the eye. Studies have been conducted to find out if negative issues during adolescents are linked to electronic usage. These experimental studies show that excessive electronic exposure has a destructive result upon children. According to the Kaisers Foundation’s
the other is the solution (punishment). But sometimes the punishment that is chosen for the offender is not always effective in community corrections. Especially when it comes to electronic monitoring. Electronic monitoring is not effective as a community corrections. In this paper it will cover what electronic monitoring is, and how it is not a deterrence in either location of the crime is where the offender is supposed to be or that offenders can commit crime while wearing the monitor or that it
“Quit Watching Me!'; Attempts to monitor employees have always existed in one form or another, from mechanical keystroke counters in the early part of the century, to the latest innovations in electronic monitoring. As technology advances, so do the monitoring possibilities in the workplace. As result of the endless possibilities in surveillance, anxiety in employee’s increase, which in most cases leads to illnesses. Studies have shown that individuals who are constantly being monitored
corporations conducted by the American Management Association shows more than 40 percent engaged in some kind of intrusive employee monitoring. Such monitoring includes checking of e-mail, voice mail and telephone conversations; recording of computer keystrokes; and video recording of job performance (Doyle p. 1). My goal is to inform the working population about electronic monitoring. The question I strive to answer, “Will employees be monitored on closed circuit television (CCTV) to determine their productivity
case you’re just using his stuff. Sometimes there is no middle ground. Monitoring of employees at the workplace, either you side with the employees or you believe management owns the network and should call the shots. The purpose of this paper is to tackle whether monitoring an employee is an invasion of privacy. How new technology has made monitoring of employees by employers possible. The unfairness of computerized monitoring software used to watch employees. The employers desire to ensure that
intermediate sanctions, which are the various new correctional options used as adjuncts to and part of probation. Some intermediate sanctions include restitution, fines, day fines, community service, intensive supervised probation, house arrest, electronic monitoring, and shock incarceration. If a person is sentenced to do time, that person could be sentenced to a county jail up to a maximum security prison. In South Carolina, most county jails or Detention Centers house an average population of approximately
In current practice, electronic fetal monitoring is a technique that is used for virtually all women in labor in the United States. The goal of fetal monitoring is to assess and interpret fetal oxygenation, and the well-being of the mother and fetus in antepartal and intrapartal setting. Assessment, interpretation, and interventions of the electronic fetal monitoring are expected for nurses working in the healthcare setting (Durham, Chapman 233). Our PICO question is “During active labor, would fetal
Electronic Monitoring and Workplace Privacy Workplace privacy is one of the biggest issues facing businesses today. Do you feel like you are being watched all the time, all your e-mails being read, and every key stroke is being monitored by your boss? Some people feel this way and that is why privacy in the workplace is a problem with many businesses today. Employees feel like they are not being trusted, or feel the company invades on their personal privacy, or violates their fourth amendment
My topic is based on house arrest (HA) with electronic monitoring (EM) and I will be arguing in favour of it being an alternative to confinement. This alternative method is reliable, lenient, efficient, and effective. It is reliable because it is a valid option for offenders who committed less severe crimes, leaving more space in prison for serious offenders. After all, there is a growing concern of jails getting overcrowded, meaning more offenders are under custody in one institution that requires
centered care and promote autonomy when a woman is undergoing Electronic Fetal Monitoring (EFM)? What is EFM and why should it be women’s centered? Electronic Fetal Monitoring There are three main ways to monitor fetal well-being, the first being an external cardiotocography (CTG) which continually monitors both fetal heart rate and maternal uterine contractions. (Department of Health 2013) Another external form of fetal monitoring is intermittent auscultation (use of a Doppler) and lastly an
offenders, especially those that have committed minor offenses. In the last couple of decades new methods of punishment has been developed for the minor offender. These fall under the category of intermediate community sanction and consist of electronic monitoring and home confinement. These punishments have proven very useful in dealing with minor offenders, pretrial confinement and others in need of supervision. They seem to be effective and help to transfer some of the cost of prison back to the offender
Have you ever thought about what would happen if all the technology that we rely on today suddenly stopped working? To ensure that this never happens there are computer network administrators. Though it may seem like a boring career, there is a lot of responsibility on these people ensuring that there is never a dull moment. To learn what these responsibilities and the more information of the career one would need to look at the history of the career, Job description, the Education and Training
of their ability. The importance of network tools will be introduced last along with benefits they can provide. Network management Network managers are responsible for ensuring efficiency through a network, this includes a number of jobs such as monitoring the network for problems and fixing them before they affect the network users, making sure network security is fully updated and capable of protecting the network from all threats, restricting employee access to files they do not require, updating
Management and Optimization Proposal This is a proposal for network management and optimization. The network has grown rapidly, and the company has not completed proper documentation and policies. This proposal includes required documentation; network monitoring, event logging, and maps; data backup; and network optimization. Documentation In order to maintain, troubleshoot, and prevent network outages, network administrators need to refer to documentation. Required documentation includes network diagrams
Electronic Security Have you ever wondered what happens to your credit card number when it's sent through a "secure" server to Yahoo or Amazon? Have you ever wondered: Is my data safe? Unfortunately no activity on the Internet is private or secure. Anything stored on a home system is completely vulnerable to the outside world (unless of course the system is isolated from the Internet). Another thing to think about is the fact that any data on any type of disk can be salvaged. So if a corrupt
processes involved, infused a desire in me to be part of this process. The amazing task of connecting the world is the monopoly of electronic devices; hence, I made Electronic & Communication engineering my choice. In addition to finding out how a device operates, I have always been interested in design aspects and monitoring the incipient faults occurring within electronic gadgets. This urge has strengthened my ability to recognize the scope for improvement and motivated me to look beyond the conventional
