More Than 45 Percent of U.S. Employees are Unaware of the CCPA
Forty-six percent of U.S. employees have never heard of the CCPA, according to MediaPRO’s 2019 Eye on Privacy Report.
Passed last year and going into effect in January 2020, the CCPA has been referred to as a U.S. General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) for its scope and focus on data rights. Privacy experts expect the law to apply to more than 500,000 U.S. companies. The 2019 Eye on Privacy Report findings suggest that raising employee awareness should play a key role in preparing for this new regulation.
