Employee Privacy Workshop
Learn how to create
effective and compliant employee privacy programs and
policies

On January 1st, 2004, British Columbia and Alberta

These Acts, in addition to Canada's federal privacy
legislation, PIPEDA, set the landscape for employee
privacy in Canada.
This workshop provides knowledge and tools to
assist you in creating an employee privacy policy
and an understanding of the operational impact
of complying with federal and provincial privacy
Acts.
