Employees in the UK expressed greater understanding of privacy laws, and better training opportunities, than those in the U.S., the ObserveIT survey reveals.

The survey polled 1,000 full-time employees in the United States and United Kingdom to determine their understanding of their organizations’ current privacy regulations.

New policies and regulations dictating organizations’ handling of sensitive consumer information – such as the GDPR, the CCPA and Vermont’s data privacy law – have brought to light the need for companies across the globe to put the privacy of their customers and employees first.
