The productivity-focused culture pushes organizations to track every minute of employee activity, including bathroom breaks, in efforts to maximize efficiency, possibly compromising trust and morale.
Research indicates that closely monitored employees often report increased stress levels and decreased job satisfaction, potentially offsetting any productivity gains through decreased morale and higher turnover rates.
Medical professionals emphasize that restrictive bathroom policies can lead to health issues, including urinary tract infections and kidney problems, particularly affecting workers who may delay necessary breaks due to monitoring pressure.
Labor advocates argue that measures like bathroom monitoring can create hostile work environments and may violate basic human dignity, emphasizing a need for performance metrics instead of time tracking.
