*The Worker as a Data Subject: Resources for Data Protection Day*

Since 2006, the Council of Europe has celebrated 28 January as Data
Protection Day—known globally as Privacy Day. Data processing now
impacts on many spheres of life. One of these is employment: increases
in the scale and ease of data processing have led to a sharp increase in
employers’ use of algorithmic management tools, which facilitate
hitherto inconceivable worker surveillance and analysis and enable the
automation of functions that were once carried out by HR.
To help raise awareness of data protection at work, the team at
iManage—Halefom Abraha, Aislinn Kelly-Lyth, and Prof Jeremias
Adams-Prassl—have brought together ten resources examining this new
phenomenon through a data protection lens. As the GDPR enters its fourth
year of application, these papers provide a great starting point for
stakeholders to understand and address data protection issues around AI
systems in the workplace. We explore these and related challenges in the
course of our weekly Algorithms at Work Discussion group (held in hybrid
format)—if you are interested in joining, please get in touch. And, most
importantly:
Happy Data Protection Day!
