Payroll processors handle a large amount of sensitive employee information and it is one of the key areas of a business that needs to be adequately protected. The changes to data protection policies places greater emphasis on safeguarding the personal employee information managed by you. An employer or business is classified as a data controller as they are responsible for the personal data that their business holds.
Employers are required to provide employees with information as to what happens to their data, as to how long their information will be stored and details of any sub-processors or third party data processors who access and manage their data. Employers can include this in the company handbook or on a data protection policy that is displayed in the office.
