Report on Revised System of Records Under the Privacy Act of 1974

Riepilogo

The purpose of this document is to give notice, under the provisions of the Privacy Act of 1974, 5 U.S.C. 552a, of intent by the General Services Administration (GSA) to revise a system of records maintained by GSA. The system of records, Credentials, Passes, and Licenses, GSA/HRO- 8, will be revised to show that GSA will collect individual next of kin name and phone number and medical information from employees on a voluntary basis, so that this information may be made available to security and medical personnel in the event of a medical emergency. The system will also be revised to show that data storage will be in the form of or in electronic chips in the individual's identification card itself, and in associated automated data systems. A new system report was filed with the Chairman of the Committee on Government Operations in the House, the Committee on Governmental Affairs in the Senate, and the Office of Management and Budget.
