- The use of personal mobile devices in healthcare highlights the need for organizations to implement a robust healthcare BYOD policy.

According to a just released survey of employees and employers by WorkJam, two-thirds of healthcare workers said they would be like to use their personal mobile devices to access information about scheduling changes and/or corporate training materials.

WorkJam polled over 1,000 U.S.-based hourly employees across the retail, hospitality, logistics, healthcare, and banking industries to determine sentiment around BYOD.
