The DPA of Hamburg imposed a fine of EUR 75,000 on a company. An employee had lodged a complaint with the DPA due to the fact that they had to report their sickness-related absences by e-mail in an e-mail distribution list with 25 colleagues and superiors, although the internal company guideline stipulated that the sickness report only had to be submitted to the manager of the respective department. In addition, their manager had sent an email to a e-mail distribution list with several recipients listing all their sick days. During its investigation, the DPA found that such extensive disclosure was not necessary and therefore unlawful.
