This zero-tolerance (ie. intolerant) stuff might play ok on a 10-second TV grab. In practice, using real people as opposed to robots, it's an attitude that will bleed the organisation of important talent when, occasionally, and for goodness knows what particular reason, some otherwise very useful member of the staff is unable to comply with the edict. Presumably when you accept the offer of employment at such a place the conditions of continued employment are spelled out to you, and if you have a problem with their zero tolerance then you will not be hired. I know of one place where armed guards are positioned at each corner of each floor of each building. This particular work environment has zero tolerance for visitors wandering around unescorted, among other policies. If you want a job there, you accept these conditions. Being bled of important talent is not their highest priority.
