Data Protection & GDPR

Data Protection and General Data Protection Regulation

The employer may need to register with the Information Commissioners’ Office (ICO) that they are processing personal data.  Further information on this requirement is available from the ICO. Employers should follow their Registration Self Assessment to help determine your obligations, and the way forward: www.ico.org.uk/for-organisations/data-protection-fee/self-assessment

In order to comply with UK requirements and the General Data Protection Regulation (known as GDPR) there will need to be a Data Processor Agreement in place between the employer and us.  We will provide information on this as part of the on-boarding process.

When we send payroll data (payslips, reports etc) by email we 'lock' the documents using a secure password.  A different password is used for each client, the password is advised to clients as part of the on-boarding service.  Clients will need to install 7-Zip software in order to unlock files.
