Technology does not exist in a vacuum and as much as it may exist as a tool for users, innovations will face scrutiny from outside parties. We have heard calls from groups such as Human Rights Watch and Big Brother Watch to ensure technology does not infringe upon people’s rights or exacerbate pre-existing inequalities between groups. These viewpoints inevitably clash with companies needing to maintain the security of their properties, creating a complex balance between privacy and protection.

Many employees have grown accustomed to spending more time at home with their families, and some people are still worried about catching the virus. Thus, you need to handle the situation properly or your employees may not agree to return. At the very least, they will be unhappy and, in turn, less productive.
