Chapter Seven: Closing Thoughts: How To Keep Your Business Compliant When Handling Employee Privacy

Key Steps Employers Should Take Right Now

A successful business will have clear privacy policies, effective data management practices, and a proactive approach to addressing privacy issues.

The key steps to take to get ahead of common privacy risks right now include:

• Developing clear, written privacy policies in areas that affect your business.
• Having all employees acknowledge receipt of such policies and acknowledge the fact that they should not have an expectation of privacy in the workplace, when performing business on the company’s behalf, or when using company equipment or vehicles. Make sure this acknowledgement is in writing.
• Staying informed about changes in California privacy laws and best practices.
• Seeking experienced legal counsel to ensure compliance and address privacy issues as they arise.
