Privacy and Security Sessions at the IHRIM
Conference Include:
Can Data
Privacy and HRIT Co-exist?
Presenter:
Carolyn E. Anker, HR Data Privacy, Eli Lilly and Company
Implementing a
HR data privacy program poses a conundrum for the HR
organization. Human resources information technology (HRIT)
is all about how to help employees access information to do
their jobs better. Data privacy is all about limiting access
to information, except when it meets a tight definition of
“need-to-know.” Given this, how can HR professionals get
their work done? How can HRIT live in this framework? How
can HR data privacy be implemented? Are IT systems the
inherent enemy of data privacy?
Privacy &
Security Affinity Group Presents: The Role of the Employer
in Combating ID Theft
Presenter:
Naomi Lefkovitz, Staff Attorney, ID Theft Program, Federal
Trade Commission
Whether the
victims of ID theft are employees or consumers, many
observers believe that the workplace is the primary source
of records used in ID theft and financial fraud. The latest
trends and developments in this area, what the Federal Trade
Commission is doing about the problem, and the role of
employers in combating ID theft is this focus of this
session, which will follow a brief business meeting of the
Privacy and Security AG.
Binding
Corporate Rules: The Wave of the Future?
Presenter: Dr.
Donald F. Harris, President, HR Privacy Solutions
Companies
developing global databases or systems need to comply with
data transfer requirements in 40 countries with
comprehensive data protection laws. Model contracts and Safe
Harbor, the major traditional compliance vehicles, each have
significant disadvantages. The newest alternative, Binding
Corporate Rules (BCRs), is just emerging, and promises to be
the approach preferred by most multi-nationals in the
future. This session explains what BCRs are, what companies
wishing to implement them must do, and what the experience
of early adopters has been. It offers a critical look at
the pros and cons of BCRs, to help you decide if they are
right for your company.
In addition,
several security issues, such as encryption, will be covered
in the following session:
