töötajaandmete

Töötajaandmed refers to information pertaining to an individual employed by an organization. This data is collected and maintained by employers for various purposes related to employment. Common categories of töötajaandmed include personal identification details such as name, address, date of birth, and contact information. Employment-related information is also crucial, encompassing job title, department, start date, salary, and work history within the company.

Beyond these basics, töötajaandmed can also include performance reviews, training records, disciplinary actions, and any benefits or entitlements the employee receives. In Estonia, the collection and processing of töötajaandmed are governed by specific data protection laws, notably the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and national legislation. Employers are obligated to ensure that this data is collected lawfully, processed fairly and transparently, and used only for specified, explicit, and legitimate purposes.

Furthermore, employers must implement appropriate security measures to protect töötajaandmed from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. Employees have rights concerning their data, including the right to access, rectify, and in some cases, erase their personal information. The accurate and secure management of töötajaandmed is essential for efficient human resource management, compliance with legal requirements, and maintaining employee trust.
