Data Protection Impact Assessment (DPIA) Template

This data protection impact assessment template is based on the sample DPIA template provided by the UK Information Commissioner's Office (ICO). Businesses handling employee health data or any other kind of special category data can use this template to do the following: 1) Identify the need for a DPIA and explain the type of processing involved, 2) Describe the nature, scope, context, and purposes of the processing, 3) Consider how to consult with relevant stakeholders, 4) Assess necessity and proportionality, 5) Describe source of risk and nature of potential impact on individuals, 6) Identify measures to reduce or eliminate risks, and 7) Record outcomes and obtain approval signatures.
