Skill Builder for HR


Mastering DSARs in Practice is part of the Skill Builder for HR: 6 x 6 series, monthly, 90-minute practical HR and employment law sessions designed exclusively for senior HR professionals and business leaders in Ireland. Each session offers a focused, practical deep dive into essential HR skills, providing you and your team with actionable tools to meet today’s challenges with confidence.

Mastering DSARs in Practice  

This session focuses on the practical challenges that arise when handling data subject access requests (DSARs) in Ireland: distinguishing genuine requests from fishing expeditions, managing scope and volume, understanding lawful refusals and exemptions, and protecting your organisation from unnecessary disclosure or risk.

Ideal for: 

  • L&D Professionals
  • HR Generalists
  • People Managers
  • Line Managers
  • Data Protection Officer
  • Those with data protection responsibilities within an organisation.


The training session will include: 

  • Presentation by an expert
  • Q&A
  • Facilitated peer discussion
  • Practical, real-life takeaways


Topics covered: 

  • Spotting genuine DSARs versus fishing expeditions in employment contexts
  • When and how to refuse or reduce requests
  • Managing scope and volume to limit unnecessary disclosure and applying exemptions under GDPR
  • Practical management of DSARs, including responding promptly and compliantly
  • Learnings from case law to handle complex or contentious requests effectively


What you can expect: 


A focused skill builder that combines expert insights with interactive case studies, equipping you with practical toolkits you can apply right away in your workplace. Delegates will leave with actionable tips and useful resources you can use immediately.


By the end of this course, you’ll learn: 

  1. How to distinguish genuine DSARs from fishing expeditions and apply key lessons from recent case law.
  2. How to manage the scope, volume, and timing of DSAR responses while complying with GDPR.
  3. How to apply exemptions, refuse manifestly unfounded or excessive requests, and reduce risk without overstepping legal boundaries.
  4. Practical strategies to manage DSARs internally, minimise organisational risk, protect sensitive information, and manage communications with data subjects and stakeholders effectively.
