For example , a job applicant may provide his or her id card number in a job application form which is mailed to the employer , but before the employer uses the number , say , to check whether the individual is a previous employee , it should be checked against the physical production of the id card by the individual 举例来说，求职者可能在邮寄给雇主的职位申请表上填上他或她的身分证号码，雇主在使用该等号码前，例如用来核对该人是否公司的前雇员，应先将有关号码与该人亲身出示的身分证核对。
If an employer merely asks job applicants to contact the company by telephone or request an application form by mail , a pics would not be required at this stage . however , if an employer wants to solicit personal data directly from job applicants in a recruitment advertisement , it must identify itself in the first place 如雇主只要求求职者致电联络或以邮寄方式索取职位申请表，则在此阶段毋须向求职者提供收集个人资料声明。然而，如雇主在招聘广告中直接要求求职者提供个人资料，则必须要在广告中述明身分。
An employer who does not wish to disclose its identity in the advertisement may instead make available to interested individuals an application form for the vacancy that identifies the employer . alternatively , the employer may use a recruitment agency identified in the advertisement to receive the personal data solicited from applicants 不欲在招聘广告中披露身分的雇主，可向有兴趣的求职者提供当中载有其身分的职位申请表。另一个可行办法是透过职业介绍所收集求职者的个人资料，但招聘广告中必须列示职业介绍所的身分。
