On July 12, 2016, the European Commission formally adopted the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield, which provides a new framework for the transfer of personal data from the European Economic Area to the United States. The Privacy Shield sets forth unique requirements for transferring human resources (HR) data, requiring that U.S. employers handling this information comply with both the Privacy Shield principles and EU data protection and labor laws. Join us for a webinar to discuss the details of the new framework and steps that multinational employers should take now, in light of the fact that the U.S. Department of Commerce will begin processing self-certification applications on August 1, 2016.
