Collecting personal data for recruitment and hiring process
What is the purpose of processing your data?
The processing carried out by the human resources department is intended to :
Manage the recruitment process;
Fulfill compulsory formalities and fill in the administrative file of successful candidates.
If you wish, the information you provide may be added to our CV library or used to respond to other job offers.
What categories of data are collected and processed?
To meet these purposes, only personal information strictly necessary to assess your suitability for the job or to measure your professional skills will be requested during the selection phase. To this end, we will ask you for data relating to the diplomas you have obtained, your professional experience, and your professional skills and aptitudes in relation to the position offered. Failure to provide this information will make it impossible for you to take part in the recruitment process.
Should your application be selected for a contract, we will ask you for the information and supporting documents required to complete the compulsory formalities. The provision of this information is a precondition for the conclusion of an employment contract for successful candidates. In addition, the provision of certain categories of information and proof (marital status, address, AVS number, residency status, etc.) is mandatory for successful candidates. Consequently, failure to provide such data will make it impossible to conclude an employment contract.
How long is your data kept?
Data is kept for as long as is necessary to complete the recruitment process.
Data concerning successful candidates will be included in their administrative file and kept for the time required to achieve the intended purpose, and will then be archived or deleted for the time required to meet legal and contractual obligations, i.e. between 5 and 10 years. Data stored in the CVthèque is kept for 2 years.
Who has access to the data collected during the examination of your application?
Your application is treated as confidential. The only people who have access to the personal data contained in your file are those in charge of the departments concerned by your application (recruitment officers, managers, etc.). In the event of a positive outcome to the recruitment process, and in order to finalize the recruitment, the Human Resources department will be required to forward some of the information gathered to the organizations informed of your engagement (in particular unemployment insurance, health insurance, retirement, mutual insurance).
What are your rights and how can you exercise them?
You have the right to access your personal data. You also have the right to rectify and delete this data, as well as the right to object to its processing in accordance with the regulations.
If you have any questions about data protection or wish to exercise your rights, you can contact the Data Protection Officer at the following address: DPO@argos-group.ch. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Swiss Confederation, via the Federal Data Protection Commissioner FDPIC.
