Summary
TD Bank told employees in its Financial Crimes and Risk Management division it will deploy ActiveOps' WorkiQ to track time spent on browsers, internal chats and meeting apps.
The bank said the software is a standard workflow tool—not AI—meant to restore transparency lost in hybrid work, improve resource allocation and identify manual-process bottlenecks.
Employees in a 90-to-100-person meeting pressed managers on privacy, consent, performance-management use and what data would be collected; TD said the tool runs in the background, passed privacy review and will not capture conversations or spreadsheet content.
The rollout lands as TD has expanded its financial-crimes unit after paying a record U.S. money-laundering penalty, underscoring how banks are using digital monitoring tools to manage compliance and productivity.
