Increase in total factor productivity?

From an article about the "electronic whip" used at Disney, it can be a source of technological advancement that may or may not increase the total factor productivity. It seems like some workers are scared whereas other don't mind being monitored and like working at a big successful company like Disney. http://www.latimes.com/health/la-me-1019-lopez-disney-20111018,0,4593135.column
