Around the world, enterprises and organizations are mobilizing their workforce by allowing smartphones to boost productivity. There are several factors that influence workforce productivity. These situations or events can affect a business in either a positive or negative way. Phone usage during work hours proves to be one such factor. Unnecessarily long calls might hit productivity negatively. Also, if the phone is provided by management, it also adds to the expenses of the organization. As a part of management best practices, the least you can do is to have a phone call logging functionality that monitors the usage of phones in an enterprise.
