“to make sure they’re working”
A boss’ job is not to babysit. Keep the higher ups off the team’s backs, run the management infrastructure needed for stuff like project planning, stuff like that. I am not at my desk for my whole work day. However not once has anyone been less than very pleased with my output. More time at my desk would not mean more work - it would mean less. The recharge time I take means that I almost universally have a good attitude at work and I’m good at untangling problems that others either can’t deal with or are avoiding dealing with.
Forcing presenteeism rather than a results-based approach is utterly idiotic.
