In many cases, this data is taken for the employee\u2019s safety, with details such as family contact numbers and health condition information allowing employers to act appropriately in the event of an emergency. However, holding such sensitive information can pose many risks to employees if it becomes exposed. In fact, if they have poor data protection measures, companies risk making their employees vulnerable to workplace discrimination from a data breach if something happens.<\/p>\n<p>Employers have a legal obligation to protect the information of their employees, so they can be held liable when a data breach does occur. We aim to bring victims of data breaches the justice they deserve, so <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dataleaklawyers.co.uk\/start-your-claim\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>contact us for advice if your personal information has been exposed<\/strong><\/a> in your place of work.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h3><strong>The risks of workplace discrimination from a data breach<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Employers need to obtain certain information from their employees for the purposes of workplace safety, such as emergency contact details, and information for employment transactions, such as bank details.<\/p>\n<p>Although the examples given above come with their own data security risks, they are not typical causes of workplace discrimination from a data breach. However, details related to personal identity can be incredibly sensitive.<\/p>\n<p>It is now common practice for employers to request details for the purposes of monitoring the diversity of their staff. This data can include details of ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, religion, and disability. The ICO states that information for diversity monitoring can only be used for this purpose and recommends that it should also be anonymised where possible so that it cannot be attributed to individual employees.<\/p>\n<p>However, if this data is not protected, it can give way to harmful workplace discrimination from a data breach. An incident could be as simple as a misdirected email, or it could be provoked by giving too many employees access to this information unnecessarily. The consequent discrimination could manifest itself in explicit verbal abuse from other employees, or a more covert type of exclusion. In whatever form it comes in, it can leave the affected employees feeling uneasy and unsafe in their own workplace.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>A workplace data breach risking discrimination <\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dataleaklawyers.co.uk\/blackpool-nhs-data-breach-compensation-claim\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>Blackpool NHS data breach<\/strong><\/a> is an example that perfectly demonstrates how data protection errors can expose diversity monitoring information. The breach arose from the accidental publication of spreadsheet data which left, among other details, information about religious beliefs, sexual orientation and disabilities exposed online. It affected some 6,574 employees, and the data was available to unauthorised third parties for almost a month.<\/p>\n<p>While the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dataleaklawyers.co.uk\/blog\/watford-community-housing-data-breach-advice\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>Watford Community Housing data breach<\/strong><\/a> was not a workplace data breach, it did involve a leak of sensitive data in a spreadsheet, and is one of the cases for which we represent a number of victims.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Making a compensation claim<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>If you have been affected by workplace discrimination from a data breach, you may have a compensation claim to make. It is unacceptable that you have been made to feel vulnerable and marginalised in your own workplace as a result of a data protection error.<\/p>\n<p>We have supported victims to claim compensation for breaches, exposing sensitive employee, medical and financial information, so we understand how profoundly victims can be affected when such private information is exposed. In fact, your final <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dataleaklawyers.co.uk\/data-protection-breach-compensation-amounts\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>data breach compensation amount<\/strong><\/a> can usually reflect the sensitivity of the information exposed, which is why diversity data breaches can see higher compensation awards.<\/p>\n<p>Anyone who thinks they may have a claim can <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dataleaklawyers.co.uk\/start-your-claim\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>contact us today for free, no-obligation advice<\/strong>.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Whenever an employee joins a company, they are usually required to disclose a variety of personal details for the purposes of workplace records.
