Keri Stephens and Jessica Ford partnered on several studies focused on how janitors used mobile devices at work. Janitors are manual labor workers, so they don’t manual workersit behind a desk and use traditional computing tools. In this research we find that policies, known as bring-your-own-device-to-work policies are interpreted differently by the janitors in our study. They were afraid to break the rules and often left their cell phones in their cars of lockers to avoid being caught with them on the job.
