+            To make the practice of sharing employee birth dates for recognition purposes both appropriate and compliant, the Payroll department must
+establish a structured framework aligned with Canadian privacy legislation, particularly PIPEDA. This begins with creating a formal
+consent process, allowing employees to voluntarily authorize the use of their birth date for non-payroll purposes, such as birthday
+celebrations. Consent must be clearly informed, specifying the intended use, who will access the information, and how long it will be
+retained. Employees should also retain the right to withdraw consent at any time. The company&rsquo;s privacy policy should be revised to
+include provisions for using personal information in recognition programs, and any updates must be effectively communicated to all staff,
+including supervisors. Access to birth date data should remain restricted to authorized personnel, and the information must only be used
+for its approved purpose. Payroll should maintain secure documentation of all employee consents and conduct periodic audits to ensure
+proper data usage. In addition, training programs should be provided to supervisors and managers to reinforce privacy obligations and
+encourage a culture of respect for personal data. By implementing these measures, the Payroll department can support positive workplace
+initiatives while safeguarding employee privacy and meeting legal standards.*
