Contracts and Employee Information

scraycraft

A government agency is asking for annual income information on each employee of a division of the company during a contract renewal process.There is no contract or bid requirement and this has nothing to do with banking, finance, credit, real estate, or any other industry where the information requested might be required.I will decline the request for this personal income information. However, I would like to be able to cite chapter and verse on any privacy laws that might apply. I haven't read anything that specifically addresses a situation like this one. Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Steve -Ft. Laud.

Sorry I can't help you with chapter & verse on privacy law, but, was the info requested as part of a contract under the Davis Bacon Act? If so, there would be a legitimate reason for requesting the info. See DOL Bacon Davis FAQ's.
