County employees may soon have a closer eye watching over their work stations--not over their shoulders, but on their computers.
Today Mark Pool, County Engineer for the Houston County Road and Bridge Department, requested that the commission implement a policy, which will allow him to monitor his employees` computer usage.
"We want them to be working on county work and we don`t want them working three or four hours on personal stuff on the computers.....I need to monitor, its just business," says Pool.
Pool also says he`s sure employee productivity will increase, if the policy is approved.
The county commission tabled the proposal until their next administrative meeting in November.
