On 1 September, the new failure to prevent fraud offence came into effect under the Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Act 2023. This duty may lead to more businesses utilising employee monitoring to prevent fraud.

In this episode of Talking Data Protection, our hosts are joined by Sadie Rice, a member of our regulatory team. Sadie talks us through the new legal duty, while Tom Hughes and Lucy Collins discuss what to bear in mind when it comes to monitoring employees in a lawful and fair way.
