We process your personal data for the following purposes:

  • Human Resources, personnel management, business process execution and internal management - including resource planning, and recruitment;
  • Health, safety and security - including protection of an individual’s life or health, occupational health and safety, protection of GeriSupport’s assets and staff, authentication of individual status and access rights;
  • Legal and/or regulatory compliance - including compliance with legal or regulatory requirements; or

Pre-screening of Applicants

We carry out screening of all Applicants who we intend to make an offer of employment, engagement or internship (as the case may be) and prior to any offer being confirmed for the purposes of:

  • verifying the information that an Applicant provides during the screening/interview process. This will include verifying information with current/previous employers and educational institutions. No steps will be taken in this respect until the Applicant confirms the verification can take place;
  • screening Applicants against publicly available or government issued sanctions lists and media sources. This is to comply with legal and regulatory obligations, to protect GeriSupport’s assets and employees/contractors and specifically to ensure that GeriSupport can comply with trade control, anti-money laundering and/or bribery and corruption laws and other regulatory requirements.

Automated decision making and profiling

All applicants must answer questions which are necessary to ensure that individuals can lawfully enter into a contract with a GeriSupport company if they are successful in their application. In addition, for graduate hires, we utilize an online assessment tool which scores individuals on their suitability for employment, based on automated decision making to ensure objectivity. In those cases, you will be notified of this and you will have the opportunity to have such automated decisions reviewed by or on behalf of a member of the GeriSupport recruitment team. Save for graduate hires or as specifically notified to you in a bespoke privacy notice or a supplementary privacy statement during the recruitment process, no profiling or automated decision making will take place to determine suitability or eligibility for employment or engagement as a contractor.

We will only process your personal data where we have a lawful basis to do so.

  • Your Consent: If required by law, we will obtain your explicit consent before processing certain data.

If we process your data based on your consent, you are always free to withdraw it. Withdrawing consent doesn't invalidate any processing that occurred before that point.
