What is personal information?
Personal information is any information or an opinion (whether true or not)
about you. It may range from the very sensitive (e.g. medical history or
condition) to the everyday (e.g. address and phone number). It would include
the opinions of others about your work performance (whether true or not),
your work experience and qualifications, aptitude test results and other
information obtained by us in connection with your possible work placements.
Sensitive information can, in most cases, only be disclosed with your
consent.
How will your information be collected?
Personal information will be collected from you when you submit any
information in connection with your application to us for registration or

including banking, taxation, superannuation and other details in relation to
the payroll function.
You can visit our website and browse without the need to disclose any
personal information. You may forward an email to us via the email link in
our website. The information collected through this email will only be used
for the purpose for which you have provided it. We will add your details to
our database, unless you have specified that we do not do so. We will not
disclose or use your information for any other purpose other than the
intended one.
How will your information be used?
Your personal information may be used in connection with:
* your actual or possible work placement;
* payment for work completed on a temporary/contract assignment;
* your performance appraisals;
* our assessment of your ongoing performance and prospects;
* any test or assessment (including medical tests and assessments)
that you might be required to undergo;
* our identification of your training needs;
* any workplace rehabilitation;
* our management of any complaint, investigation or inquiry in which
you are involved;
* any insurance claim or proposal that requires disclosure of your
personal information.
Who may your personal information be disclosed to?
* potential and actual employers and clients of Hender Consulting;
* referees;
* other areas of Hender Consulting;
* our insurers;
* a professional association or registration body that has a proper
interest in the disclosure of your personal information;
* a Workers Compensation body;
* our contractors and suppliers - e.g. our I.T. contractors,

Security of your personal information
Your personal information may be stored either in hardcopy or
electronically. Hender Consulting has security procedures in place to ensure
the protection of your personal information.
Access to your information to correct it if it is wrong
Subject to some exceptions which are set out in the National Privacy
Principles (Principle 6 - Access and Correction), you have a right to see
and have a copy of personal information about you that we hold.
If you are able to establish that personal information that we hold about
you is not accurate, complete and up-to-date, we will take reasonable steps
to correct it so that it is accurate, complete and up-to-date.
If we are unable to agree that personal information that we hold about you
is accurate, complete and up-to-date, you may ask us to place with the
information a statement by you that claims that particular information is
not accurate, complete and up-to-date.
If you wish to exercise your rights of access and correction you should
contact our Privacy Officer, whose details are shown below.
In some cases we may impose a moderate charge for providing access to
personal information. We will not charge you simply because you lodge a
request for access.

If you wish to contact us about your personal information you should contact
our Privacy Officer during normal office hours 8.30 am - 5.30pm on 08 8100
