Confidential Records l




As the payroll clerk, your task is to protect the privacy and confidentiality of the
l l l l l l l l l l l l l l




l information youmaintain for the company. If a student group—or any personnel aside
l l l l l l l l l l l




l from the company’s payroll employees and officers—wishes to review confidential
l l l l l l l l l




l records, you should deny their request. If needed, you should refer the group to your
l l l l l l l l l l l l l l




l department’s manager to discuss the matterin more depth. The laws that apply to this
l l l l l l l l l l l l l




l situation are the Privacy Act of 1974, U.S. Departmentrof Health and Human Services
l l l l l l l l l l l l




l Privacy Act 09-40-0006, Common-Law Privacy Act, Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, and
l l l l l l l l l l l




l potentially HIPAA. l

l l l l l l l l

l l l l l l l l l l




l larger companies. Smaller companies could maintain their payroll needs using
l l l l l l l l l




l company personnel because of the lower volume of transactions. l l l l l l l l
