By following a grounded theory approach, combined with a mixed methods methodology, this work provides an essential conceptualization of the contextual nature of employee privacy, dimensions of employee privacy concerns, a corresponding measurement model, and a conceptual model of the relationship between digital work and privacy. Overall, the results of this dissertation provide a nuanced understanding of employee privacy issues in digital workplaces and corresponding recommendations on managing employee privacy and mitigating employee privacy concerns.
