ECJ EU March 30, 2023, IT 4246; ECLI:EU:C:2023:270 (Hauptpersonalrat der Lehrerinnen und Lehrer beim Hessischen Kultusministerium v.

Article 88 of the AVG states that member states have the power, but not the obligation, to adopt such rules, but they must include appropriate and specific measures to safeguard employees' rights with respect to the processing of personal data. If national rules conflict with the AVG, they must be disapplied, as it beginshttps://www.itenrecht.nl/artikelen/hvj-eu-nationale-regelingen-ter-bescherming-van-werknemers-moeten-voldoen-aan-artikel-88-avg
