-
- Business
In this episode Jonathan Armstrong and Tom Fox are back to discuss issues relating to data privacy, data protection and GDPR. In this episode, we consider recent decision by the Hamburg Data Protection Authority which fined H&M Germany €35.2m for GDPR violations. The case concerned excessive use of employee data and is the largest fine so far imposed by regulators for the handling of employee data. We are likely to see more pressure on employers to justify the handling of employee data as a result of today’s fine. Some of the highlights are:
What did the regulator say?
What did H&M do after the investigation began?
What about the current pandemic?
What are the implications going forward?
What is this decision’s precedential value?
What are some practical tips for compliance?
