Personnel Folder is not blocked and who have provided employment information

refer the inquiry to the employee for authorization to reply. Similarly,
telephone credit inquiries or verifications which do not provide status
information for confirmation will be cleared with the employee prior to
the release of the information. When an employee does not wish an answex
to be given to an inquiry, TRB will so advise the requestor.
