Evaluation of the members of the linguistic team - OHIM

Opinion of 12 Novembre 2007 on a notification for prior checking on the evaluation of the members of the linguistic team (Case 2007-475)

Members of the Linguistic Team of the Office for Harmonisation in the Internal Market (OHIM) are subject to evaluation of their translation or revision work by means of two processing operations of personal data aiming at making, on the one hand, a qualitative assessment, and on the other hand, a quantitative assessment. Those processing operations pursue the same purpose of evaluating both the team's performance and the individuals' work.
 

The EDPS has issued an opinion on the evaluation of the members of the linguistic team. The EDPS concludes that on a general basis the procedure complies with the principles established in the data protection regulation. However the EDPS did make some recommendations mainly as concerns the information of the persons concerned and the security measures. In particular, the EDPS suggested that the controller must inform the evaluated staff and provide them with the Data Protection Statement at the time of undertaking the evaluation procedure. Concerning the security measures, the EDPS recommended implementing measures to ensure an appropriate level of security in case of transfer of data.
