IT can screen capture you computer without you knowing so this isn't new. Furthermore they can also see what application is in the foreground and OCR the captured image for more information. The possibilities to monitor you are endless.

The delta between possible and easy makes all the difference in the world in situations like this. A periodic static screenshot obtained through an onerous process is one thing. A “productivity dashboard” packaged and distributed for the intended use of end managers begs to help drive micromanagement and misconception.
