IKEA: Cameras were hidden in the ceiling above warehouse toilets for 'health and safety'

Re: Excuses, excuses

"Installing the cameras in 2015 is recent enough for some serious data protection legislation to have been violated"

IKEA, as an employer, must hold digital data on identifiable employees. as a commercial entity, it must hold identifiable data on customers.

Would those mean that the video footage would be required by law to be disclosed to an employee or customer who requested it, as is true of some other records?

I am definitely no lawyer so I have possibly misread the statutes.
