Brian Hengesbaugh and Julia Wilson, a leading employment and privacy partner in our London office, join for this episode of Connect on Tech to discuss privacy in the work place and key issues employers are facing.  In this podcast, Brian and Julia take a deep dive into four key areas employers must carefully navigate in the data and privacy realm – i) the processing of testing and vaccination data, ii) employee monitoring in various guises from clever technology that tracks activity, to lo-tech activities such as keeping secret files about employees, iii) ability to process diversity and inclusion data to better understand workplace equality issues, and iv) the use of AI in the employment context, particularly in recruitment.   Brian and Julia reflect on how these topics require a holistic approach to employment and privacy considerations, in order to get the right balance and be compliant.
