British Companies Face Legal Repercussions for Illegaly Obtaining Personal Information
British Companies Face Legal Repercussions for Illegaly Obtaining Personal Information
From The Guardian:
"firms, including Balfour Beatty, Sir Robert McAlpine, Laing O'Rourke and Costain, have, for many years, covertly bought details of workers' trade union activities and their conduct at work.
...workers have been unfairly denied employment because they have had no chance of challenging any inaccurate information, some of which has been stored for decades."
Much of this malfeasance can apparently be traced back to private detective, Ian Kerr, who is set to be prosecuted in the case.
More here on Kerr's secret database.
