SOME workers have been implanted with microchips that allow the companies that employ them to track their every move.
Swedish company Epicenter will embed a chip into about 150 workers, so bosses can monitor toilet breaks and how long they work.
The workers volunteered to have the microchip, which is about as big as a grain of rice, implanted for free.
Patrick Mesterton, co-founder and chief executive of Epicenter, an innovation and technology company, told the ABC the microchips inserted into employees’ hands would simplify life.
