Many data protection issues are based in the employer-employee relationship. It is therefore important for employers to understand their rights and obligations when it comes to collection and processing of personal data. Handling employee data correctly will contribute to ensuring a harmonious and smooth-running working relationship.

At the same time, technological developments and the widespread use of social networks such as Facebook have brought new challenges for employers in terms of data protection law.
