Arbeitszeit: Arbeitszeitbetrug: So können sich Unternehmen wehren
Wäsche waschen, einkaufen, Netflix schauen: Immer wieder erledigen Beschäftigte Privates in ihrer Arbeitszeit. Wo der Betrug beginnt und was Unternehmen dagegen machen können.
In Berlin, employees are engaging in a form of time theft by pretending to work while secretly engaging in personal activities such as shopping, exercising, or cooking. A market research institute found that 13 percent of German workers regularly fail to accurately record their working hours. Of those surveyed, three-quarters admitted to conducting personal business during paid work time.
Sascha Stowasser, director of the Institute for Applied Labor Sciences (IFAA) and researcher on changes in the workforce for many years, warns that time fraud has significant economic consequences. He explains that sick leave is extremely costly for businesses. The question arises: when does poor morale end and fraud begin? And what can managers do to combat this issue?
