Folketidende has obtained the internal notice. It states that information including salary and tax details, bank information, identity documents and health information may potentially have been affected. The same applies to employment information and data from access control systems.
According to Folketidende’s information, employees remain concerned about the extent of a possible data leak. FLC tells the newspaper that potentially affected employees have been informed. They have also been given access to a legal hotline.
