Method

How each entry is written

Three rules, applied to all forty-two.

A practical software reference for this part of the discussion is Monitask's overview of employee activity tracking software.

State the share first

Every entry opens by saying what proportion of employment it actually concerns. The argument of the site is that most claims about work are claims about a minority of jobs, and a site making that argument should be held to it on every page.

Trace the figure to the study

Where a number is quoted, the foot of the entry names the source and says what it measured. Where a widely repeated figure turns out to rest on something narrower than its use, that is stated plainly and is usually the point of the entry.

Name the jurisdiction

Employment law differs by country and by state and changes often. An entry describing a rule says where the rule applies. None of it is legal advice.

What is not done here

No advice on monitoring employees covertly. No claim about an individual employer. No figure quoted without saying what produced it.
