In this issue we look into the implications of misusing data in the employment context. In particular, we outline recent ICO prosecutions of employees for unlawfully obtaining data. We also look at a decision involving interim relief and an order for the deletion of data.

In our case law review we also analyse the Advocate General's view on a ban on wearing a headscarf at work and whether that is discriminatory under the European Directive.

For those concerned about issues involving working time, there is a helpful clarification about injury to feelings awards in the context of Working Time Regulations claims.

There are also some indications of future legislative changes in relation to the National Minimum Wage and increasing the representation of black and minority ethnic workers in the workplace.
