Hmm!
Compliance date is 28th May so June guidelines are a little late!

From my ECU colleague Ashlee:
Hi Julie/Fiona/all
Regarding your email about GDPR guidance, just to say that ECU is aware of the need for guidance around this, and is due to publish a research and data briefing covering the GDPR and how it relates to equality research, planned for June 2018.
ECU currently recommends that identifying information be removed from submissions prior to publishing them, and this will be particularly important going forwards. For small numbers you might consider applying HESA’s rounding strategy, and rounding these to the nearest 5.
Please let me know if I can provide any further information.
Thanks very much
Ashlee

Dear all
My colleague has been in touch with the ECU asking if they would be able to advise us on any implications with GDPR and publishing submissions. Unfortunately, it seems at this stage they don't have any guidance, but they said that the members charters team have raised it within the ECU and they hope to provide guidance. They couldn't put a timeframe on it though.
Hopefully they will develop guidance as a priority, given how much ED&I related data we all deal with, especially in relation to chartermarks, but if we learn anything in the meantime though from other sources, will share. There is an Expert HR webinair taking place on 14th March that I think anyone can sign up to.
thanks
Julie

Dear All,
We are concerned about sharing and publishing our SWAN applications and the new data protection legislation. Even when the submissions are anonymised, low numbers of women / men in some departments means that the forms are not compliant with the GDPR. I’m not aware that ECU are planning to publish guidance on this (please correct me if there are plans though.)
We will be seeking advice from our Legal Team but they will obviously be erring on the side of extreme caution – we want to be compliant but also take a common sense approach. I just wondered if your institution had similar concerns and what your thoughts are? Happy to share the advice we receive.
Best wishes,
Fiona
