The European Council's Data Protection Day is on
28 January. COVID-19, the gig economy and technological advances
are all key data protection topics for the year ahead.
While the COVID-19 pandemic continues to dominate the agenda and
will have an impact for data and privacy in the workplace in 2022
there are other developments that will also be of interest to
global employers. We have considered some of the bigger Covid
issues employers will be grappling with this year, as well as
looking at the data and privacy aspects of the new proposed EU
Directive on platform workers and the latest on technology and
talent.
COVID-19
Inevitably as the latest variant of COVID-19 sweeps around the
globe, employers will continue to review and assess the situation
and ensure their policies and processes are up to date and conform
with the latest guidance.
