Abstract

The adoption of IoT technology to improve wellness and health awareness in workplace environments is increasingly vital. However, the acceptance of such e-health interventions largely depends on employees’ perceptions of their value versus the privacy and security risks associated with data usage. Hence, addressing these concerns is paramount for fostering trust and ensuring the successful integration of technology. For this reason, this work explores the critical role of privacy in the workplace and examines how concepts of data control and ownership can improve the acceptance and effectiveness of IoT solutions. Leveraging insights from an online questionnaire with 524 participants from European countries, the obtained findings contribute to the existing literature by expanding the understanding of data control in workplace contexts and providing valuable insights for designing IoT-mediated e-health interventions that effectively address employees’ privacy concerns.
