ACCESS all AREAS!
Under the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and similar laws around the world, every ‘data subject’, including job applicants, employees, former employees, etc. has the right to request access to all personal data held about them by the data controller (employer). These ‘subject access requests’ (SARs) are an important right, but bring with them myriad concerns and complexity. In this session we explore from the perspective of the UK, Belgium, Ireland, Singapore and Romania:
what SAR are
when they are used
what the pitfalls are
what employers should do to ensure they deal with SARs properly
how employers can standardise their processes across the world
Our hosts are: Alexander Milner-Smith (UK), Inger Verhelst (Belgium), Linda Hynes (Ireland), Lionel Tan (Singapore), Roxana Ionescu (Romania).
