Randstad teams up with OneTrust for worldwide privacy program management

Largest and most broadly-leveraged dedicated privacy management tech platform with more than 2,000 in its network, OneTrust, has recently announced that global leader in outsourcing, staffing, and workforce solutions Randstad would be joining that number for their General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and global privacy compliance guidelines.. 

Randstad implemented OneTrust's Assessment Automation, Data Mapping and Cookie Compliance solutions to unify their privacy efforts across a global network of 38,000 employees managing a workforce of 600,000 across 39 countries.

With a global scope and focus on human resources, Randstad manages large amounts personal data on a daily basis, with each local entity acting as an independent processor or controller of personal data with local data protection responsibilities. The Randstad privacy team approached the GDPR with a global mindset with a local approach. Knowing that with regulation at its infancy and a growing list of local and country-specific laws likely to follow, they needed a solution that could adapt to the changing and evolving global privacy landscape. After an extensive selection process, Randstad chose OneTrust for its capability, flexibility and agility to build additional functionality into its privacy programme.

"One of the many reasons we love to work with OneTrust is because they have great people that make the difference," said Wouter-Bas van der Vegt, Global Data Protection and Information Security Officer at Randstad. "They are available for questions, if you're struggling with issues, or just listen to what you are trying to achieve. The partnership we have with OneTrust makes the difference."

"Randstad is a great example of a company that not only uses innovative technology to serve its clients, but understands the importance of using innovative technology for its global privacy efforts," said Kabir Barday, OneTrust CEO and Fellow of Information Privacy (FIP). As the global leader in outsourcing, staffing, consulting and workforce solutions, Randstad is showing its employees, workers and clients that privacy is core to its business. We look forward to continuing to work alongside Randstad for their global privacy compliance initiatives.
