Introduction: With the increasing penetration of digital technologies in health management,
digital health interventions in workplaces have been given substantive interest. These
interventions aim to enhance employee well-being, minimize absenteeism and
presenteeism, and augment organizational productivity.
Objective: A systematic review of the effectiveness of digital health interventions in
enhancing health-related outcomes within workplace settings and evaluating their
implications on managerial decision-making.
Methods: According to PRISMA guidelines, the current systematic review adopted the most
appropriate methods to retrieve studies from PubMed covering interventions that included
cognitive-behavioural therapy apps, software that reduces sedentary behaviours, virtual
reality for well-being, and comprehensive health programs. The studies' quality was
assessed through standardized tools with a preference for randomized control trials and
mixed-methods research.
Results: It was found that digital health interventions positively impact mental health,
physical activity, and well-being. However, limitations were found due to self-reported data
and potential biases. The review identified long-term effectiveness, objective outcome
measures, and cost-effectiveness areas for future research.
Conclusion: Digital health interventions hold promise in enhancing workplace health
strategies, as they offer scalable, personalized, cost-effective solutions. However, the
critically relevant research gaps have to be faced to integrate these successfully and exploit
their real potential in organizational health strategies.
