Robert Yoss:
See 10 CFR 20.2106(d) which requires that records of individual monitoring
results "should be protected from public disclosure because of their personal
privacy nature."

Recently a question of confidentiality of personnel dosimetry records has
been brought up. The question is, if monthly film badge exposures are
posted in a department, what, if any, information on the report from the
badge vendor should not be posted? information such as SSN and DOB are
assumed not to be posted. The main question is, each person has a
participant number, so should the name also be excluded so the exposure
is theoretically known only to the participant? What right do
supervisors and managers have to know the exposures of the people they
supervise? Do occupational radiation exposure records come under the
federal Privacy Act? Any info would be greatly appreciated.
