Summary

Acting on a 14 January 2021 complaint by the company's staff-delegates college over CCTV and biometric time-clock systems, Senegal's CDP plenary session issued a formal notice (mise en demeure) against Groupe Fauzie Layousse under article 29-1 of the 2008 law, ordering it within one month to uninstall and move outside the cameras installed in offices (including the doctor's office, hospitalisation room and refectories), formalise the exercise of data subjects' rights, and file corrected declarations for its CCTV and geolocation systems. The plenary ordered publication of the notice in the Journal Officiel, provided for referral to the sanction committee if the notice proved unfruitful, and informed GFL of its two-month appeal right before the Cour suprême. Reported in Avis Trimestriel N°04-2021; the decision date is recorded at quarter-end precision.
