Confidentiality and Data Protection Policy and Agreement


The major distinction between data protection and confidentiality is that data protection protects data against destruction, loss, and illegal access, whereas confidentiality allows only authorised individuals to access data.

Confidentiality is maintained for all knowledge and information described in the Confidentiality Agreement. To ensure confidentiality, all employees are required to review, confirm, and sign the Confidentiality Agreement.

Confidentiality Agreement

As an employee of Major Healthcare Recruitment, I may be provided with confidential information regarding the children and young people in my care. As an employee with need to-know access to childcare information, I may have privileges to access confidential information about children and young people within my care as well as their families.

Procedure

Employees must review, confirm, and sign the Confidentiality Agreement. All Employees agree:

  • To respect the confidentiality and rights of every child in their care.
  • Not to disclose confidential information without authorisation or other than when it is necessary to carry out job duties.
  • Not to access, report on, extract or disclose information that is not required in their normal job functions and responsibilities.
  • Not to discuss or otherwise communicate any form of information concerning the care of any child with unauthorised individuals.
  • That confidentiality applies equally to verbal information and information stored in information systems (database) and on paper records. Written or printed information will be stored in a secure lock box in the package or disposed of with proper regard for Confidentiality, following all legal requirements related to the information in question.
  • Failure to abide by the child confidentiality requirements may result in immediate
    dismissal.
