I am wondering if this is a breach of personal data ... pls be so kind as to advise .... a colleagues personal HR file was left in an office with all staff having access into the office .... just lying on the desk for all and sundry to acces if they wanted .... with a handwritten note from the manager for the employee to complete a form inside the file .... it was lying there for three days .... when the employee came in and saw it on the desk ... they were quite upset as all their data was in the file which consisted of all pesonal data , banking data , HR dox and references and anything pertaining to that employee ... is this a norm or is it a breach ....the employee removed the file and has it in their possession ... no one has even enquired about it missing etc ... by the way this is a huge company not a small mom and pop business ....
