Deloitte is intensifying its monitoring of UK employees’ internet activity, particularly those logging in from abroad, as part of a crackdown on violations of working-from-home rules. It is understood that while Deloitte does not track its employees or routinely monitor their locations, the firm is notified when data is accessed remotely from outside of the UK. The firm analyses IP addresses for security purposes and to ensure that remote workers are not breaching any overseas tax, regulatory or client obligations, according to a person familiar with the matter. Rival PwC last week informed its 26,000 UK employees that it will start tracking their locations in a wider crackdown on office attendance.
