Abstract

Employers’ electronic monitoring of employees’ actions, also known as employee surveillance, has become a common phenomenon in contemporary workplaces, enabled by advancements in technology. This comprehensive review synthesizes current knowledge across multiple research streams regarding electronic monitoring. While the overall impact of monitoring on performance appears neutral, a small positive correlation can be observed with strain, and a small negative correlation can be observed with job attitudes. These modest effect sizes may stem from paradoxical effects that counterbalance each other, a phenomenon known as suppression. Moreover, these relationships are likely contingent upon various moderating factors, including individual traits, job characteristics, and national differences, particularly in legal regulations. To foster a more nuanced understanding of electronic monitoring's implications, future research should prioritize methodological rigor, embrace open science practices, and use validated measures and longitudinal designs. Additionally, adopting a process-oriented approach delineating the phases of decision-making, preparation, start, continuation, and discontinuation of electronic monitoring implementation could offer valuable insights.
工作场所电子监控
雇主对员工的行为进行电子监控,又称员工监视,在科技进步的推动下,已成为当代工作场所的一种普遍现象。本综述综合了当前有关电子监控的多个研究流派的知识。虽然监控对绩效的总体影响似乎是中性的,但可以观察到监控与工作压力之间存在微小的正相关,与工作态度之间存在微小的负相关。这些适度的影响大小可能源于相互抵消的矛盾效应,即所谓的抑制现象。此外,这些关系可能取决于各种调节因素,包括个人特质、工作特征和国家差异,尤其是法律法规方面的差异。为了促进对电子监控的影响有更细致的了解,未来的研究应优先考虑方法的严谨性,采用开放的科学实践,并使用经过验证的测量方法和纵向设计。此外,采用以过程为导向的方法,划分电子监控实施的决策、准备、启动、持续和终止阶段,可以提供有价值的见解。
