Is it normal to have surveillance cameras at workplace?
They are installing few lately and we didn't use to have them before, at least since when I joined.

Outside of offices, they are at least not unnormal.
I work at a data center and the cameras film the surrounding.

@TheCommoner282 India.

@sbiewald Inside room, where developers sit.

@Jilano last time I asked they said it was for safety and one more reason they told was we are having lots of rats.
Meh....

@theKarlisK Nah, they didn't mentioned anything about this.

I wouldn't be surprised if toilet cameras were common in India

@electrineer LMAO

@synchronicity What the fuck?
No, this is not common.

Sure, why not?

@TheCommoner282 I meant actual Rats. xD we even have few traps for catching them.

Yeah, some workspaces remind me of a dystopian society. As far as I know, some companies use https://recfaces.com/ biometric software to control their workers. And this system works pretty damn well, unfortunately for the office staff.

If you are making your work honestly, that souldn;t be a problem for you)

I think that this is quite normal practice for employers. I have security cameras in my office at work and no one sees anything strange in this, since equipment was stolen in the neighboring office a year and a half ago. It's not a big tragedy, but it's still not pleasant. So our boss set up a security system ajax maybe you've heard of it. I honestly hadn't heard of it before, but after the boss started praising it, I decided to install it at home. This is a good wireless security system.
