Employee Training

Importance of Training: Educating employees about GDPR compliance is vital because they play a significant role in data protection. Employees need to understand their responsibilities, recognise potential data risks, and know how to respond appropriately.

Training Programs: Implement GDPR training programs that cover the basics of data protection, the organisation's policies and procedures, and how to handle data securely. Training should be provided to all employees, with additional specialised training for those handling personal data.

Regular Updates: GDPR compliance is an ongoing process, and regulations may change. Ensure that employees receive regular updates and refresher training to stay informed about any updates or changes to compliance requirements.

Data Protection Champions: Appoint data protection champions or liaisons within various departments to serve as internal resources for GDPR-related questions and concerns. They can help ensure that compliance practices are followed at the departmental level.
