Personal Data Protection Compliance Training Course – Malaysia

/in , , , , , , , , , , /by

Course Description

This course provides training on the requirements for collecting and handling personal information in Malaysia

Failure to properly collect, handle and protect people’s personal information can put businesses at considerable financial and reputational risk. Malaysian and European laws impose strict requirements on businesses operating in Malaysia, and all staff need to be adequately trained to meet these requirements and understand what is required of them when dealing with individuals’ personal information.

This course covers all the areas of privacy law that are likely to be encountered by Malaysian businesses. Three modules deal with the provisions of the Malaysian Personal Data Protection Act (PDPA), which sets out the rules for collecting, storing, using, handling, anonymizing, correcting and deleting personal data. It applies to all individuals, businesses and associations that operate in Malaysia or handle the personal data of Malaysians. It covers data protection and breach notification.

The European Union General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) contains very strict privacy protection provisions. It applies to Malaysian organisations that deal with EU citizens or with their personal data (for example, if they have a website with any of the EU languages other than English.) As the EU is Malaysia’s third largest trading partner it is crucial that Malaysian businesses understand and comply with its requirements.

The lessons in this course provide scenarios and case studies that illustrate the sorts of privacy issues that staff can expect on a daily basis, and bring the business of privacy protection to life.

The PDPA was seen as a key enabler to strengthen consumer confidence in electronic commerce and business transactions …

Modern Slavery – non-jurisdictional

/in , , , , , , , , , , , , , /by

Course Description

Modern slavery can affect any country; the United Nations estimates there are more than 40 million victims of modern slavery worldwide. Modern slavery can occur in any sector or industry, and at any point in a supply chain. High-risk industries include fashion, agriculture, hospitality, construction, electronics and extractives. The risk of modern slavery occurring in supply chains increases for organisations that have extensive, complex or global supply chains.

This three-module course covers what modern slavery is, its prevalence in supply chains, and how its use can most effectively be prevented by organisations. Both modules contain practical scenarios relating to issues affecting organisations with modern slavery in their supply chains. These scenarios equip staff to identify and take steps to prevent modern slavery from occurring in their supply chains.

Who is this training for?

This training is suitable for a wide variety of staff including those working in procurement, compliance or risk roles as well as those working in a front-line capacity.

Course Outline

  • Module 1: Introduction to the prevention of modern slavery
  • Module 2: Preventing the use of modern slavery in supply chain

Do you need short, effective training to raise staff awareness of the indicators of modern slavery and how they should respond?

Modern slavery can affect any country: the United Nations estimates there are more than 40 million victims of modern slavery worldwide.

The risk of modern slavery occurring in supply chains increases for organisations that have extensive, complex or global supply chains.

Modern Slavery – Awareness is a single-module, awareness course that equips your staff with an understanding of:

  • The definition of Modern Slavery
  • How to explain the occurrence of modern slavery in supply chains
  • What can be done to combat and prevent the existence of modern slavery
