We advised a client from the transport sector on whether it is legally permissible to request the series and number of driver’s licences from drivers operating under service contracts rather than employment agreements. The client sought legal clarity on how to align such data requests with both data protection regulations and transport operator obligations.

Our legal analysis combined the GDPR, labor law, road transport legislation, and enforcement practices. The result was a set of clear recommendations defining the scope of personal data that can lawfully be requested and processed by the contracting party, taking into account the business-to-business relationship and operational needs.
