Woman fired for deleting tracking app manager required
A California woman is suing her former employer after she claims she was fired for uninstalling a smartphone app that let her boss track her movements 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
Myrna Arias worked for the Intermex wire transfer service when she says her boss, John Stubits, fired her for deleting the Xora (now ClickSoftware) job management app from her smartphone.
Xora, the app that Arias complained about, tracks and manages mobile employees while they’re in the field.
Do you think Arias should have been fired for not using the app, as her suit alleges? Should employers be able to track workers when they’re not on the job?
