ACC Lunch Seminar: Impact of the GDPR on Whistleblowing and Internal Investigations

Event | 04.02.19, 12:00 PM UTC - 2:00 PM UTC

Address

Crowell & Moring
Rue Joseph Stevens 7, B-1000 Brussels

Suppose that you have been asked to conduct an internal investigation into potential wrong-doing within your company. In the process, you will collect evidence and conduct interviews that involve an important amount of personal data, including sensitive data. What steps should you take to prevent the investigation being open to challenge in the future, and how can you ensure that you yourself are not accused of infringing the law?

  


Experienced lawyers Emmanuel Plasschaert and Evelina Roegiers will highlight the legal pitfalls when handling internal investigations (taking into account the laws on antibribery, competition, discrimination, etc.), with a particular focus on the impact of the GDPR.


Language: English
