Answer 1

Answer:

New technological inventions ( like wristband trackers, microchip, etcetera ) used by employers to monitor their employees has proven to be a cause for worrying.

These gadgets has the potency of causing a level of discomfort and health problems for the employees who use it (though most times is against their will).

I suggest regulatory bodies, government agencies and stakeholders should review its terms of use.

Also, these devices can fail and night give a result not corresponding or not accurate to the employees physical psychological state. This will end up misleading the employee, and it can lead to employer / employee dispute .
