Yes, I agree. There are competing rights. When I've received internal emails about me, the sender's name and contact details have been redacted. That's both normal and expected.
- belorn 2y agoThe ICO has information regarding such requests, like https://ico.org.uk/for-organisations/uk-gdpr-guidance-and-resources/employment/subject-access-request-q-and-as-for-employers/ https://ico.org.uk/for-organisations/uk-gdpr-guidance-and-re... which discuss internal emails. There is a lot of exceptions and area for redaction, but the most significant in this case would be disclosing information that identifies another individual. As an example they have a fictional employee requesting a HR file. The HR file is likely to include information identifying managers and colleagues, or may include revealing information that relates to and identifies another individual. Redacting the names could be enough, or the emails might be heavily redacted down to only strict information regarding the employee without any parts of decisions or input given by the manager. If the intent of the requester is to get "what did my manager say about me", then that would not be valid.
