I don’t get it, you have privacy at home or outside work, why when someone is paying you to work for them there is an expectation of privacy? You don’t see how that is extremely counterproductive for capitalism and economic activity?
Just don’t come to work right? You can have all the privacy you want? Or don’t visit the business if you are the customer.
Please help me understand what the logic and justification is to regulate and control security camera use within private enterprises (with the obvious exception of toilets and changing rooms etc)?
My employee can intrude on my privacy when he had probable cause but only then. Otherwise it is illegal to collect personal data. I need mutual trust to be productieve and evaluation of my work should always be upfront and transparant.
Otherwise I'm puzzled by your claim of productivity. Especially since we are stalking about labour productivity.
Notice that the top tier of the list is populated by countries with strict privacy laws.

I work from home half of the time.
I have clear targets. Some I set for my team, some are set for me. If I reach or surpass my targets, why should I be spied on constantly?

We're past the industrial revolutionaire for while. A happy pig is a fat pig, one could say :-)
