“…The survey was conducted in Finland, where much attention is paid to occupational safety and health. In addition, there are differences, for example, in the information security behavior of employees (Connolly et al, 2019) and people's privacy-related behavior (Li et al, 2017) between different countries. This limits the generalization of the results and implies that confirmation of the results is needed.…”

Occupational safety and health is traditionally a challenging area in the labor-intensive construction industry as accidents at work and non-ergonomic work conditions lead to absences and premature retirement of construction workers. Recently, the rise of the Internet of Things (IoT) and its accompanying technologies (e.g. wearable technologies) has enhanced interest in the occupational safety and health of construction work. The level of technology acceptance among construction workers is a crucial element in the adoption of these technologies. The main objectives of this study are to enhance understanding about construction workers’ attitudes towards IoT-based data-intensive work safety and wellbeing solutions and to identify factors that can promote technology adoption. Data for the study was collected through an online survey of 4385 construction workers. Based on the survey data it seems that construction workers would accept the sharing and utilizing data collected from them in the worksite environment if it could help identify employee personal health risks or promote personal and colleagues' occupational safety. Respondents were most concerned about privacy and security regarding wearables in the workplace. It can be concluded that user acceptance and trust building are key components in the adoption of IoT-based occupational safety and health solutions. Future studies should investigate methods for actively involving construction workers in the design and development process of IoT-based work safety solutions and examine technological solutions that promote trust building among construction workers.

“…Furthermore, there has been a recent increasing interest within the Usable Security and Privacy community to move away from "one-size fits all" approach [66]. Since socioeconomic groups and cultures are known to influence users' perceptions of technology and its implications [15,42,44], it is important to consider the potential impact of the socioeconomic profile on the individual's privacy perceptions. For example, would sharing of a mobile device be perceived to out-weigh privacy concerns for low-income individuals?…”

This paper contributes an in-depth understanding of privacy concerns and perceptions of Arab users. We report on the first comparison of privacy perceptions among 1) users from high socioeconomic groups in Arab countries (HSA), 2) users from medium to low socioeconomic groups in Arab countries (LSA), and 3) as a baseline, users from high socioeconomic groups in Germany (HSG). Our work is motivated by the fact that most research in privacy focused on Western, Educated, Industrialized, Rich, and Democratic (WEIRD) societies. This excludes a segment of the population whose cultural norms and socioeconomic status influence privacy perception and needs. We report on multiple novel findings and unexpected similarities and differences across the user groups. For example, shoulder surfing is more common across LSA and HSG, and defamation is a major threat in LSA. We discuss the implications of our findings on the design of privacy protection measures for investigated groups.

“…But even within Western cultures Whitman [25] notes differences in sensibilities about what ought to be kept "private". For further insights how cultural factors influence privacy concerns we refer to Li et al [13]. Directly connected to cultural differences are differences in privacy regulations, where the history about the Safe Harbor Agreement (cf.…”
