Information and communications technologies, known as ICT, have undoubtedly contributed to the development of societies through the multiplication of data processing and storage in everyday relationships. At the same time and notwithstanding, it is not possible to ignore the risks that these have caused, in relation to the lack of security of personal data. This situation has generated the development of regulatory frameworks aimed at counteracting such risks. Among these regulations, there are the ones relating to the workplace.In this article, the author reviews the novelties brought about by the entry into force of the Personal Data Protection Law (Law 29733) in Peruvian law. Subsequently, he points out and describes the basic concepts involved in the topic of personal data protection. In a third section, he develops the obligations of employers regarding the protection of personal data and the challenges that this faces in the face of global changes. Finally, he illustrates all this through cases of jurisprudence.
