GDPR for Employees: Prove Awareness

GDPR imposes an obligation to raise awareness among all people involved in personal data processing — employees, but also subcontractors and partners. The DPO must be able to demonstrate that this awareness has taken place, particularly during a CNIL audit.

Article 39 of GDPR and awareness

Article 39 entrusts the DPO with the mission of raising awareness and training staff involved in processing operations. This obligation extends to communicating privacy policies, data breach procedures, and processing rules.
