Your attendance machine may be sharing worker data without you knowing.
You lock your factory gates every night. But your workers' Aadhaar numbers, phone numbers, and salary details are sitting in apps and vendor systems. You may not even know who has access. Under India's new data law, if a vendor leaks your workers' information — YOU are responsible. This is not just a big company problem. Small factories and units face this too.
Think about your daily work. Your attendance app scans thumbprints every morning. Your payroll vendor gets salary and PAN details every month. Your ERP system stores worker resumes and Aadhaar numbers. Your cloud storage holds all of this online. Each of these is a risk point. The new data law says you must check that every vendor keeps this information safe. You must have a written agreement with them. If they leak data — you pay the fine, not them.
List every vendor who holds your workers' personal information.
Ask each vendor in writing how they keep your data safe.
