Disclosure of employee-related information

This document provides guidance to employers on how to manage employee-related information disclosed to them by the security authorities. Employers do not currently have authoritative advice on how to deal with information disclosed to them about employees in non-National Security Vetted posts.
 
This guidance offers advice to employers on how to manage the consequences of a disclosure of information regarding an employee. Whether the disclosure is about a member of staff working in a sensitive area who is suspected of being in contact with terrorists; or is about an employee managing the organisation's finances who is falsely claiming benefits, there are common measures which the employer can take to help manage the risk.
