GDPR Employee Data Health Check Online Workshop for Employers

Time: 09:30 - 16:00 GMT 

Cost per attendee: £375 + VAT 

The implementation of the GDPR in May 2018 has forced employers to rethink how they process and store data, and in some cases, to transform workplace culture in order to comply. The arrival of Covid-19 further stretched organisations already under pressure to maintain strict data protocols by presenting challenges with home-working and hybrid working set ups.

This workshop will ensure that your organisation is fully versed on what best practice looks like and can remain one-step ahead of any new challenges that are presented with the current review of GDPR rules in the post-Brexit landscape.  

Learning outcomes

By the end of the programme you will:

  • Be aware of the key factors involved in building effective virtual teams
  • Understand why the management mindset needs to change post-Covid
  • Have a sound understanding of the practical aspects of new communication methods
