Balancing Data Collection and Candidate Privacy

Inclusive hiring often involves collecting sensitive demographic data to monitor diversity metrics. Privacy laws restrict the extent and manner in which such data can be gathered, requiring that employers only collect what is necessary and often obtain explicit consent. This balance helps protect candidates from potential misuse or discrimination.
