Advice for TEOs on training staff in privacy practice.

All staff should be trained in privacy practice. However, different staff will have different training needs depending on how much personal information they manage in their day-to-day job.

All staff should understand the basics, ie, the information privacy principles from the Privacy Act, what personal information is and what to do in the event of a privacy breach.

Larger organisations could consider creating a short privacy module for staff, especially as part of an induction package.
