Last month Cyprus took an important step towards improving work-life balance and the protection of the personal data and privacy of employees.

More specifically, the Commissioner for Personal Data Protection issued on 26/05/2025, Directive No. 1/2025, on the use of personal mobile phones for work-related purposes, which is based on the Guidelines by the European Data Protection Supervisor, Opinion 2/2017 of the European Commission and the European Data Protection Board.

The Directive aims for more uniform and consistent guidelines on the use of personal mobile phones for the purpose of carrying out certain work-related tasks during working hours, in a manner that ensures the protection of the personal data and privacy of employees.
