Install human infrared sensors in office to monitor employees, SAIC response

Recently, it was reported that in order to develop the work efficiency of employees, a certain car company installed human infrared sensors to monitor employees, causing heated discussions.

Judging from a document, this is the work requirement of SAIC after its ninth general manager meeting this year.

At the same time, the document mentioned that in order to better arrange the number of seats in the department, the Data and Information System Department and the Security Department will analyze the real utilization rate and work style of each department’s workstations through the method of data collection, and judge the future work.

The number of seats is required. The installation area includes employee workstations, conference rooms, and collaboration areas. The installation time is December this year.

From the overview of the human infrared sensor, it can be seen that the sensor can also ‘use the body temperature and movement as the basis for judging, and use intelligent algorithms to judge the actual use of the work station time.

It means that how employees use the time will be detected. You know everything. In response to this matter, Zhihu Certification responded: ‘First of all, we will not and do not agree to use this method to manage employees.

This time the sensor is installed for data collection and trial operation. The trial operation time is estimated. After 2 weeks, all will be demolished.’

As for why the sensor is installed, the official said that the move is to transform part of the office environment for a shared office, adding small meeting rooms and relatively open office space.

In a manner similar to the parking lot indicator system, the usage status of the shared office area is displayed, which is convenient for everyone to make an appointment.

According to the latest sales data released by SAIC Motor, in November, SAIC Motor sold a total of 643,928 vehicles, an increase of 10.65% from 581,932 in November last year; cumulatively for the whole year, it still fell by 12.39% year-on-year.
