Opinion Letter No. 91-18
October 15, 1991
Inter-Agency Disclosure of Social Security Numbers for Study
The Hawaii Public Employees Health Fund was authorized
to disclose the birthdates of employees’
dependents and the employees’ social security numbers to the
Department of Personnel Services in
furtherance of a contract with the university to conduct a study
of the State workforce. This
conclusion was based upon the disclosure provisions of the UIPA
that permit the inter-agency
disclosure of records when disclosure reasonably appears proper
for the requesting agency’s duties
and functions.
