Employee tracking to enforce return-to-office policies is becoming more common among businesses. PwC has informed its UK-based employees of a new policy requiring them to be in the office three days per week. The company will monitor location data to ensure compliance. However, employees at various companies, such as Amazon, Disney, and General Motors, are resistant to returning to the office.
