Preparing for the new regime<\/span><\/h2>\n

It\u2019s now just over a month until the new data protection legislation, GDPR, comes into force\u202625 May 2018.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re aware that many of the organisations we deal with have taken steps to prepare for GDPR in terms of how they process third party data for business purposes generally. But is your HR team ready for the impact of GDPR on the data of employees and other individuals who work for the organisation (including freelancers, consultants etc)?<\/p>\n

We understand\u00a0that trying to get ready for GDPR can be rather daunting in\u00a0a busy day. So we have prepared a checklist, specifically for HR teams, covering what they need to do.\u00a0 If you would like a copy of that (free of charge), please email us here.<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

Privacy Notices: 1) for those already working for you 2) for candidates \u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

As part of preparing for GDPR as an employer, you\u2019ll need to prepare and refer anyone working for you to a Privacy Notice.\u00a0 This will apply not only to employees, but anyone else working for you such as consultants and interns.\u00a0You will probably need two Privacy Notices:\u00a0one for those who are already working\u00a0with you and a shorter one for candidates.<\/p>\n

We also recommend that you review the data protection wording in your contracts, as relying on\u00a0blanket consent will no longer be appropriate.<\/p>\n

If you haven\u2019t yet got your employer Privacy Notice in place, we can help. We\u00a0have prepared two template Privacy Notices for employers to use:\u00a0 one for those already working for you and one for candidates.\u00a0 These could easily be\u00a0adapted for your use, once you have carried out your audit.<\/p>\n

We are offering both Privacy Notice templates for a total of \u00a3150 plus VAT. <\/strong><\/p>\n

We believe that the\u00a0template should simplify what you need to do, but\u00a0if you need additional support tailoring it to your particular organisation, and\/or reviewing your contract clauses, we\u00a0would be happy to provide that under a separate arrangement.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re interested in the template and\/or additional support, please get in touch by email<\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
