The Works Council Is Watching — Good.
Which data a learning platform needs, what it should never collect — and what a works agreement looks like that brings protection and training together.
The problem this is about
A learning platform is a technical system objectively capable of recording behaviour and performance — which brings co-determination under Sec. 87 of the German Works Constitution Act into play. Treat that as a formality and you lose months. Take the questions seriously and you gain an ally.
The three worries are always the same: can my manager see how long I took? Where is the data stored? And what happens after the click in a phishing simulation? This paper answers all three — concretely enough to turn straight into a works agreement.
What is inside
- The data minimum: the four things training evidence needs — and the list of what is off limits
- Phishing simulation as training, not a trap: the ground rules that build trust
- Eight cornerstones for the works agreement — walkable in a single meeting
- How ConformBase delivers on the promises technically (data minimisation, no tracking in the learning area, aggregated reporting)
