Is GDPR the Death Knell for Human Capital Analytics?

The European Union’s new General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is a direct hit on companies’ use of human capital analytics (HCA). As a result, HCA leaders are concerned—and, in many cases, confused—about how it will affect their ability to deliver strategic insights to the business. GDPR offers potential benefits and challenges for HCA; leaders will need to act to ensure that HCA complies with GDPR, but not overreact, stripping HCA of its business value.
