Anyone is legally entitled to make a subject access request to a current or former employer, asking to see a copy of any information (data) that they hold about you. Most businesses understand that they are legally obliged to fulfil your request withing one calendar month of receiving it. Unfortunately, some companies may try to stonewall you with legalese or simply ignore you. Few people make a subject access request out of idle curiosity. The chances are that you suspect that some information held about you may be wrong and you want to address the situation as swiftly as possible. That is where Data Access Office can handle your employee subject access request on your behalf.

Our data protection officers (DPOs) are experts in the regulations and legislation that cover subject access requests, and ensure that all the relevant information is supplied in your initial request. This keeps the timeframe at one calendar month, avoiding the company extending the deadline by claiming they need more information. You can submit the request yourself or we can handle the entire process on your behalf. If we are handling the request on your behalf, this includes all correspondence.

Best of all, we offer fixed pricing so you know exactly how much your SAR will cost. Unlike using a solicitor!
