Barclays has scrapped a system that tracked the time employees spent at their desks and sent warnings to those spending too long on breaks.
The bank introduced the computer monitoring system last week, but faced a staff backlash, reported by City AM.
Barclays said axing the tracking system was a response to "colleague feedback", but would not say if it was permanent.
The software, Sapience, claims to create "unprecedented transparency" within companies.
