With abundant reference to the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation, the case law of the European Court of Human Rights, and the work of the International Labour Organisation, the book proceeds as a series of country chapters, each by a recognised expert in a specific jurisdiction. Legal comparison is based on a questionnaire circulated to the contributors in advance. Each country chapter addresses the national legal weight of such issues and topics as the following:
- interaction of privacy and data protection law;
- legitimacy, purpose limitation, and data minimisation;
- transparency;
- role of consent;
- artificial intelligence and automated decision-making;
- health-related data, including biometrics and psychological testing;
- monitoring and surveillance; and
- use of social media.
A detailed introductory overview begins the volume.
The research for this book is based on a dynamic methodology, founded in scientific desk research and expert networking. Recognising that the need for further guidance for privacy at work has been demonstrated by various European and international bodies, this book delivers a signal contribution to the field for social partners, practitioners, policymakers, scholars, and all other stakeholders working at the crossroads of privacy, data protection, and labour law.
