INTRODUCTION TO THE PIA
Purpose
The purpose of this document is to evaluate and certify that Department
of Labor, Wage & Hour Division's (WHD) Wage & Hour Investigative
Support and Reporting Database (WHISARD) meet or comply with privacy policies
when operating to service the user base.
Scope
This Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA) covers the Employment Standards
Administration's Wage & Hour Investigative Support and Reporting Database
(WHISARD), which is managed by the Wage Hour Division (WHD). The WHD
Administrator is the system owner.
Results
Based on the Privacy Impact Assessment Questionnaire, WHD states that
WHISARD, the automated system, is fully compliant with Privacy Act of 1974. The
WFAS meets all requirements of the Privacy Act listed under 5 U.S.C. 552a.(4)
as amended, listed under "Records Maintained On Individuals."
Summary
Information is collected by WHD to enforce federal laws and to benefit
individuals. WHD protects an individual's rights to privacy through their
automated system. WDS supports the Privacy Act, 5 U.S.C. 552a, and OMB Circular
No. A-130, "Management of Federal Information Resources," 61 Fed. Reg. 6428
(Feb. 20, 1996).
WHD has performed the threat analysis as described in Section 1.4. WHD
has adequate controls in place to protect individuals and the DOL. There are no
adverse impacts on WHISARD due to PIA results. The detailed Privacy Impact
Assessment Questionnaire in Section 2 provides details to substantiate WHD
findings.
