Phone Recording Policy

This policy outlines Care Control Systems LTDs call recording process. The purpose of call recording is to provide a record of incoming and outgoing calls which can: 1. Identify practice staff training needs 2. Protect practice staff from nuisance and abusive calls 3. Establish facts relating to incoming/outgoing calls made (e.g. complaints) 4. Identify any issues in Care Control’s processes with a view to improving them.

Purpose

The purpose of this policy is to ensure that call recording is managed in line with GDPR and Data retention requirements. This will generally involve the recording of telephone conversations which is subject to the Telecommunications Act 1984.

Scope

This policy applies to all Care Control Staff including any contracted or temporary workers. All calls via the telephone systems used by Care Control Systems will be recorded, including:

  • All external incoming calls
  • All external outgoing calls made by Care Control Staff
  • All external call transfers

The recording will automatically stop when a Care Control staff member terminates the call.

Call playback and Monitoring

All call recordings will be undertaken by the CEO. Any playback of the recording will take place in a private setting and where applicable, staff members should be given the opportunity to listen to relevant recordings to receive feedback and developmental support.

All recordings will be stored securely by Care Controls phone providers 8 X 8. Access to these call recordings will be controlled by the CEO or in his absence Director of Operations.

Confidentiality

The Data Protection Act allows access to information that is held about an individual and their personal data. This included recorded telephone calls.

Requests for copies of telephone conversations can be made under the Data Protection Act as a “Subject Access Request”. After assessing whether the information can be released, the requestor can be invited to Care Controls HQ to head the recording. The right to be forgotten does not override legal and compliance obligations.

Subject Access Request (SAR)

Subject Access Request (SAR) is a mechanism provided by data protection laws that allows individuals to request access to the personal data held about them by an organisation.

To make a Subject Access Request to Care Control Systems, follow these steps:

  • Contact the Human Resources department or Sally Brown who is responsible for handling SARs at Care Control Systems as our designated Data Protection Officer.
  • Prepare your request: Compose a written request that clearly states that you are making a Subject Access Request.

It’s crucial to be as specific as possible about the data you are seeking access to, including relevant timeframes or specific categories of information.
  • Submit your request: Send your SAR to the designated contact at Care Control Systems. You can typically do this through email or postal mail, depending on the contact information provided. If you choose email, ensure that your request is encrypted or sent through a secure channel to protect your personal information.
  • Verification of identity: Care Control Systems may require you to verify your identity before processing your request. They may ask for additional information or documentation to confirm that you are the individual to whom the requested data relates. This step is crucial to prevent unauthorised access to personal information.
  • Processing time: Under data protection laws, Care Control Systems has up to 30 days to respond. Care Control Systems will acknowledge your request promptly and provide an estimated response time, which will be no greater than 30 days.
  • Data disclosure: Once your request is verified and processed, Care Control Systems will provide you with the requested personal data they hold about you. This can be in the form of a secure digital file.
