WernerCo GDPR & Data Privacy Notice
WernerCo. is aware of its obligations under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and data protection legislation and is committed to processing your data securely and transparently. This privacy notice sets out the types of data that we collect and hold on you as a job applicant. It also sets out how we use that information, how long we keep it and other relevant information about your data.
WernerCo. is a data controller, meaning that it determines the processes to be used when using your personal data.
In relation to your personal data, we will:
- process it fairly, lawfully and in a clear, transparent way
- collect your data only for reasons that we find proper for the course of your employment in ways that have been explained to you
- only use it in the manner that we have told you
- ensure it is correct and up to date
- keep your data for only as long as we need it
- process it in a way that ensures it will not be used for anything that you are not aware of or have consented to (as appropriate), lost or destroyed.
We collect data about you in a variety of ways including the information you would normally include in a CV or a job application cover letter, or notes made by our talent acquisition teams during an interview. If successful, further information will be collected directly from you when you complete forms at the start of your employment, for example, your bank and personal details. Other details may be collected directly from you in the form of official documentation such as your driver’s licence, passport or other right to work evidence.
In some cases, we will collect data about you from third parties, such as employment agencies, former employers when gathering references and employment checks.
Your data will be shared with colleagues within WernerCo. where it is necessary for them to undertake their duties with regard to recruiting and onboarding our talent. We share your data with bodies outside of Europe including North America where our corporate Head Office is located.
Where we share your data with third parties including iCIMS, our talent acquisition platform provider, we ensure that your data is held securely and in line with data protection requirements. Third parties must implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to ensure the security of your data.
Our Data Protection Officer at WernerCo. is DeVane Tidwell and he can be contacted by emailing tidwewd@wernerco.com.
