GETTING THE BEST PEOPLE FOR YOUR BUSINESS

Getting The Best People For Your Business

OVERVIEW

Recruiting staff can be a costly process that businesses want to get right and involves the collection and use of personal data about individuals. Businesses have a fine balancing act to undertake when it comes to complying with data protection and employment laws for recruitment purposes. ensuring their need to have an individual’s information doesn’t override their rights and freedoms. This workshop will be delivered by Caroline Chapman of Grounded Human Resources and Samantha Dunwell of Dunwell Data Protection.
