Is it admissible to acquire data concerning criminal records of the employees in the public and private sector?
According to Article 22 of the Labour Code the employer has a right to demand from the job candidates or employers only the data specified in this Article.
The employee is obliged to give other data, including information concerning criminal records only in case when other provisions of law demand to do so.
In other words the processing of personal data concerning criminal records of the employees by the employer is admissible only if the provisions of separate acts impose such obligation.
