Employer not playing ball

[Extra 300 Driver]

Hi all,

I have requested some information, e mails, which my company had written about me over the previous weeks - on a specific subject. I requested this under the Data Protection Act, as advised. To date they have not responded, despite hurry ups and further requests.

What are my rights here? I want to have a record of the information, which I have not seen before as I am leaving very soon.

Any help would be greatly appreciated,

Thanks

I have a similar battle at the moment, with out going into great detail google information commisioners office or ICO they govern all things data protection and freedom of information. There is a number to call and they will help you.

mark Thomas the political commedian did a great program about this where he asked various companies and governement departments what information they had on him.

It was most interesting. I've though of doing this, and seeing what emails have been going from my boss to his boss and back again, but I reckon they'd just delete them and then do a search. Anyway all the real plotting goes on by word of mouth.

They have 40 days to comply.

After that, you can go to the IC to seek enforcement and/or the County Court.
