Maintaining Employee Records Certification

Maintaining Employee Records Certification

Every business needs to keep employee records. This allows the company to keep running smoothly. For example, payroll information is required to ensure that the employee receives the right pay, and sensitive healthcare information may be required to facilitate reasonable adjustments in the workplace.

All employers need to be aware of their duties under the law with regards to data protection. In this course, you will learn how to comply with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and retain accurate payroll records for HMRC.

 

You will learn:

  • Why employers need to collect information about their employees, and the type of records they keep
  • How long employers can keep information about their employees
  • The requirements for data storage and handling under the GDPR
  • How to keep appropriate payroll records
  • How to prepare for a tax compliance check, and the consequences of failing to keep appropriate records
