Avis du 6 mai 2009 sur la notification de contrôle préalable concernant les "Evaluations et rapports de stage" (Dossier 2009-030)

The European Food Safety Authority processes personal data of its staff related to probationary periods. The purpose of processing the personal data of staff members is to meet the requirements of the Staff Regulations and the Conditions of Employment of other Servants of the European Communities (CEOS). The probationary report itself aims at providing an objective summary assessment of the staff member's performance, competences and conduct during the initial period of the engagement.

The opinion advises EFSA to pay special attention to the principle of data quality and prior to automated solutions being introduced the EDPS should be consulted.
