About

Fifty notes on employee location tracking, written from the operator's side.

Who this is for

Whoever has been asked to deploy something and needs to know which questions decide the outcome. Whoever has to assess it — legal, HR, a works council. And, indirectly, the drivers, whose cooperation keeps the data usable and whose interests are treated here as a design input rather than an obstacle.

How the notes are written

Tests you can run. The overnight test, the known-route accuracy measurement, the geofence check with a real visit, the weekend query.

Questions with checkable answers. Where a note says to ask something, it says what a good answer looks like and what a refusal means.

The uncomfortable findings included. Dwell time contains six things the worker does not control. A driver score can make dangerous driving look good. A gap in the record is a question, not a conclusion.

Limits stated plainly. Two notes are entirely about what these records cannot tell you and what collects nothing at all.

What is deliberately absent

How to track covertly. How to conceal what is collected. How to make a pause control harder to find. How to extend collection quietly after an upgrade.

These appear only in the notes explaining why they should not be done, and requests to help with them are declined in the same terms: a better-hidden version of the thing is still the thing.

No numbers

No accuracy figures beyond broad ranges, because they depend on the device and the environment. No savings percentages, because vendor figures are best cases. Measure your own; the notes say how.

About this domain

This address previously belonged to an author's personal website.

None of that material is here and none of it should be. It was a living writer's own site — her biography, her books, her contact details — and the book cover images belonged to her publishers in any case.

Every previous address returns a clear "gone" response.
