Special features in handling employee data in accordance with the GDPR

Due to high demand, we are pleased to offer an additional date for our data protection event in cooperation with Ebner Stolz:
The additional AfterWorkShop on the topic “Effects of the new data protection law for ‘Human Resources’ according to GDPR” will take place on Wednesday, April 25, 2017 at 6:30 pm at the Hotel Waldorf Astoria.

GDPR is coming by leaps and bounds: In just under two months, on May 25, 2018, the new General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR and the new BDSG) will go into effect. This means that companies will be faced with significant legal changes that will have a particular impact on the processing of employee data in the HR sector and will require adaptation to the mandatory new regulations.
In this event, we, together with Ebner Stolz, would like to inform you about some important “immediate measures” for the HR sector and provide you with technical and employment law recommendations that you should definitely consider in your final preparations in order to be “compliant” and to protect yourself from high fines.
