Confidential Records ty
As the payroll clerk, your task is to protect the privacy and confidentiality of the
ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty
information youmaintain for the company. If a student group—or any personnel
ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty
aside from the company’s payroll employees and officers—wishes to review
ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty
confidential records, you should deny their request. If needed, you should refer the
ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty
group to your department’s manager to discuss the matterin more depth. The laws
ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty
that apply to this situation are the Privacy Act of 1974, U.S. Departmentof Health and
ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty
Human Services Privacy Act 09-40-0006, Common-Law Privacy Act, Computer Fraud
ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty
and Abuse Act, and potentially HIPAA.
