The Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) has launched a series of blogs to dispel the myths that are emerging around the incoming General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR).
UK Information Commissioner Elizabeth Denham has written on topics including the concerns around the level of fines that companies might receive, misunderstandings about gaining consent and issues around data breach reporting.
Denham commented: ‘The ICO’s commitment to guiding, advising and educating organisations about how to comply with the law will not change under the GDPR. We have always preferred the carrot to the stick.’
The Learn Centre is running a half-day GDPR course to specifically help payroll professionals prepare for the changes which come into force in May 2018.
