sorry for starting a new topic - related to Very OT - salary dispute - but want to be sure I understand this (I'm a techie so numbers and tech jargon are fine; legalese goes into my head, rattles round and not much happens).

Regarding making a subject access request - I understand I can ask my employer for salary details, but have come across this.

That is saying my employers does not need to notify ICO, yes? So I can send SAR to get my salary details and they should supply details.

Yes you are right, but it would not be your problem if they did have to notify ICO they would still have to give you the info about yourself.
