SUMMARY: The Employment and
Training Administration interprets
Federal law requirements pertaining to
the Federal-State unemployment
compensation (UC) program. Section
303(a)(1), Social Security Act, as
implemented at 20 CFR part 603 (71 FR
56830), generally requires States to
maintain the confidentiality of UC
information.
Section 603.9 of 20 CFR requires
States and State UC agencies to assure
that recipients of confidential UC
information have certain safeguards in
place before any confidential
information may be disclosed. Section
603.9(d) provides that States are not
required to apply these safeguard and

security arrangements to a Federal
agency which the Department of Labor
(Department) has determined, by notice
published in the Federal Register, to
have in place safeguards adequate to
satisfy the requirements of § 603.9.
The Department has determined that
the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has
in place such safeguards for purposes of
tax administration, including
administration of the Federal
unemployment tax and the Health
Coverage Tax Credit. Specifically,
Section 6103 of the Internal Revenue
Code and IRS regulations on the
confidentiality of tax return information
(26 CFR 301.6103(a)–1 et seq.) are
sufficient to protect the confidentiality
of information consistent with the
Department’s regulation.
The Department has also determined
that wage and claim information
disclosed to the Department of Health
and Human Services for purposes of the
National Directory of New Hires is
protected by a ‘‘security plan’’ which
provides safeguards adequate to meet
the requirements of the Department’s
regulation. Further, laws governing
information in the National Directory of
New Hires impose strict controls on
redisclosure and disposal of
information. See, e.g., 42 U.S.C. 653(i),
(j), (l), and (m).
This notice is published to inform the
public of the Department’s
determination with respect to these
agencies.
