    2. For what purposes and on what grounds do we process your personal data?
      The purpose of the processing of personal data of applicants is to recruit personnel for Scania:
      • Receiving, processing and storage of the job application
      • Concluding an employment contract between the applicant and Scania
      • Storage of the job application for possible future recruitment.
      In addition, the data are used for statistics and reports, to develop recruitment in particular. The processing of your data as an applicant is based on Scania's legitimate interest, such as the job application you have submitted and the recruitment process, as well as the personal and aptitude tests you have consented to, or data collected from references you have provided. In addition, personal data are processed for the purpose of carrying out pre-contractual measures between the selected applicant and Scania.

      The technical platform of the data file is the LAURA™ service, whose provider LAURA Recruitment Ltd is responsible for the technical implementation of the data file and thus acts as the processor of personal data.

      LAURA Recruitment Ltd is a Finnish service located in Finland.

    3. What types of personal data do we process, and where do we collect the data from?
      We process the following personal data concerning applicants:
      • Basic and identification data: forename and surname
      • Contact details: address, telephone number, email address
      • Data used to assess qualifications and suitability: data related to the job application and CV, such as work experience (employer, job title, job description), education and diplomas, language skills, specific competences, work samples and other competences, work certificates
      • Data on the factors and specific skills required for the job applied for (e.g. driving licence)
      • Assessments and checks on the suitability and reliability of the applicant, such as personal and aptitude assessments
      • Data formed during the job application process, such as communications, interviews, employer's classifications and notes
      • Data on referees
      • Data publicly available with the consent of the applicant, e.g. LinkedIn or other social media services
      • Any other information provided by the applicant, such as a photograph.
      In LAURA Recruitment Ltd's service, you can subscribe to job vacancy postings according to your chosen search criteria by entering your email address in the 'Hakuvahti' function. In addition, you can send a job vacancy posting through the system by adding the recipient's email address in the ”Kerro kaverille” function.

      Personal data recorded in the data file are collected primarily from you as an applicant, or with your consent from referees or on the basis of testing. In addition, the data comprise data stored during the recruitment process. Other data sources are used within the limits of legislation.

      Personal data may also be stored for a longer period if this is necessary to fulfil a legal obligation imposed on Scania.
