There are business reasons for the approach. Sometimes those reasons apply, sometimes they don't. The reasons range from contractually driven such as an external time and materials contract with a customer who will perform an audit at one end of the spectrum to internal org charts where staff are fungible such as the Amazon warehouse. In both cases the ultimate source is company culture...or rather in all cases (where a company does or doesn't track like that). Good luck.
