Are HR records which are taken as part of the Employment process which has special categories of data need to have explicit consent? How can we address this requirement?

Answer:
Depends on what you collect as part of the employment process. Usually for employment purposes, if special category data is collected from the employee, this is because it is a legal requirement usually under either Labor Law or laws related to health and safety in the workplace.
So, I genuinely think that you should rely on legal obligation and not consent for any processing of special category data.
