In this month's law lab webinar, Jo McLean, partner and head of data privacy in our technology and commercial team, revealed the top ten data privacy issues employers need to know about.

From evolving data protection laws and increasing numbers of data subject access requests, to new complaints processes and the rapid adoption of AI in the workplace, employers are facing a growing range of privacy-related challenges.

This webinar also provides practical, actionable guidance on how to manage these risks effectively, avoid common pitfalls, and ensure your organisation remains compliant while supporting business objectives.

In addition, Ilaria Moretti, senior associate in our employment team, shared our practical tips from recent case law and key legislative updates.
