The Scandinavian bosses didn't just opt to trust the employees. Spying on employees is illegal in (most of?) Scandinavia as far as I know.

- MrDresden 6y agoYes, this kind of invasive surveillance would not be allowed and could end up in the company being fined huged sums
- Silhouette 6y agoSpying so intrusively on employees need to be done very carefully to stay legal in the UK as well. The ICO (the national data protection regulator) provides extensive guidance for employers on workplace monitoring, and there are several laws that might be relevant depending on the circumstances. The rules are far more nuanced than just saying that an employee on work time can be subject to whatever monitoring an employer feels like doing.
