Stakhanovets has developed a software solution designed to gauge the potential risk posed by individual employees to their employer. The program identifies actions deemed risky, such as engaging with gambling platforms, visiting certain sections of the dark web, seeking new job opportunities, or expressing unfair or prejudicial remarks about a company or its leadership. This information was shared with socialbites.ca by representatives from Stakhanovets.
The system operates on an intelligent engine that observes workplace behavior and assigns a risk rating to employees on a ten-point scale. This rating serves as a practical flag for managers, helping them understand which personnel might impact the organization adversely before issues escalate.
The risk score is derived from two primary factors: the amount of time an employee spends on sites or applications considered potentially harmful, and the frequency with which questionable language is used. The utility comes with a baseline resource and terms list, which employers can customize to align with their industry standards and internal policies.
“The rating enables managers to take a proactive stance, identifying insiders who could leak confidential information to third parties or disrupt team dynamics,” explained Alexander Kanatov, the business director of Stakhanovets, to socialbites.ca.
Beyond risk detection, the rating also offers a lens into the quality of an individual’s work. Managers can initiate timely discussions about duties and expectations, aiming to reduce the risk of losing key personnel. This functionality is part of the newly released version of the Stakhanovets monitoring system, which emphasizes early intervention and better workforce governance.
The presentation of this capability follows broader industry moves toward intelligent monitoring that emphasizes fairness, transparency, and alignment with legal standards. Companies deploying such systems typically implement clear usage policies, ensure data privacy, and provide avenues for employees to review and contest findings when necessary, all while maintaining a focus on organizational safety and performance. This approach helps organizations balance oversight with trust and fosters a culture of continuous improvement. The system’s ongoing refinement occurs with input from client feedback, regulatory considerations, and advances in analytics technologies. (Citation: socialbites.ca)
