FINALDescripción
The Spanish DPA has imposed a fine on the president of the workers' council of a company following a complaint by a former employee. During their employment, the company carried out a collective redundancy procedure that affected the employee. The council had publicly posted a record of a meeting between the employee representatives and the works council, which contained a list of the employees affected with personal data such as names, ID card numbers, dates of birth, etc. The original fine of EUR 1,000 was reduced to EUR 600 upon admission of responsibility and voluntary payment.
