The Payroll Data Analytics Project was created to analyze payroll disbursement data. For the HUD employees in the collection, the HUD Office of the Chief Financial Officer (OCFO) collects the first five letters of the first name and the last 4 digits of Social Security Numbers (SSN) from the Department of Treasury, Administrative Resource Center (ARC). This is collected as part of the payroll data used to identify questionable payroll transactions that may require further review by HUD management. If needed, OCFO will request HUD employees' Standard Form 50 (SF-50) from HUD's Office of the Chief Human Capital Officer (OCHCO) for potential outliers that require justification. HUD OCHCO sends the SF-50 to HUD OCFO via encrypted email. The SF-50 includes Personally Identifiable Information (PII) such as full name, date of birth, SSN, pay grade, salary, veterans' preference, and all other data included in the SF-50 template.
