Abstract in another language
Employee health is increasingly important, as is the use of eHealth technologies in the private and the organizational context. This paper examines which existing eHealth technologies are applied in occupational health management (OHM) and investigates the advantages and disadvantages of their application. To pursue this intention, we analyze the current state of research with a structured literature review and provide a comprehensive overview of relevant works in a concept matrix. The results show that numerous technologies such as smartphone applications or activity trackers are already being used in OHM. Thereby, positive outcomes such as an increase in employee health can be achieved, but it can also lead to negative outcomes such as a reduced work-life balance. Furthermore, the impact of the application depends on various mediators such as the work area (blue- and white-collar work) or leadership support.
