Strengthening Data Protection Awareness in Recruitment Across Europe, Europe

As part of Hays' ongoing commitment to responsible recruitment and data protection, a dedicated training programme was delivered to colleagues on the handling of personal data throughout the recruitment process.

The training focused on the practical application of data protection principles, helping colleagues understand their responsibilities when collecting, processing, storing, and sharing candidate information. Through real-life recruitment scenarios, participants were encouraged to adopt best practices and ensure compliance with applicable privacy requirements.

The initiative achieved strong colleague participation and demonstrated Hays' commitment to protecting candidate and client data while maintaining the highest standards of ethical and compliant recruitment practices.
