My company is considering if to charge employees for Subject Access requests
for viewing their own personnel files (hard copy in a relevant filing
system) under the Data Protection Act 1998 and I would be interested to know
what other organisations are proposing.
I would be grateful if members of this group would share their own
organisations policy in this area. Please do email me off line if you
prefer and I will then publish the results to the whole group.
In my own company, we would probably donate any £10 fees collected to
charity anyway (we would not aim to make money from our own employees), but
are drawn towards charging to minimise the number of access requests.
