I think you misunderstood my point. I'm not saying they "should be allowed to slack off". I'm saying they either do or don't, and the ones that do aren't going to work more because you block one of the ways of slacking off. The only thing that's likely to happen is that they'll be less happy with their job. Micro-managing people to change their habits is very hard. Incidentally I also believe that the vast majority of employees are not equally productive every day. Do you believe otherwise

Ah, so you're saying if an employee is willing to slack off by reading forums that negating their access will not fix the problem. That makes much more sense.
I don't think skill between two employees should be an excuse to allow one to slack off if that is where you are going with that question.
You pay someone for 40 hours of their time a week and they give you not 30, not 35, but 40 hours of their time a week. It's a very simple and reasonable request.
