PDPA Compliance for
HR Professionals
Overview
Human resource (HR) professionals deal with personal data on a regular basis. For example, HR professionals must handle significant amounts of employee data, as well as the personal data of job applicants.

At the end of this 1-day course, participants should understand how to achieve essential compliance with the data protection obligations of the PDPA, within the context of their HR responsibilities.
