8 Jan 2026 Αρχηγείο Πυροσβεστικού Σώματος (Hauptquartier der griechischen Feuerwehr)Greece: 10,000 EUR against Fire Service Headquarters over health data in duty log GreeceEmployee data €10,000

In a daily orders book of a fire service unit that was accessible to staff, not only the transfer of a female officer to light duties was recorded, but also her illness, the treatment and the medication prescribed. The Αρχή Προστασίας Δεδομένων Προσωπικού Χαρακτήρα (Hellenic Data Protection Authority) found a breach of lawfulness and data minimisation and, by Decision 1/2026, imposed a fine of 10,000 EUR on the Fire Service Headquarters.

What organisations can take from it

Employees’ health information never belongs in generally accessible official records – the reason for an absence generally does not need to be disclosed.
