NASA Procedural Requirements

NPR 3790.1 Effective Date: April 30, 2019 Expiration Date: December 11, 2024

Subject: NASA's Domestic Violence, Sexual Assault, and Stalking Response Plan (Revalidated with Change 1)

Responsible Office: Office of the Chief Human Capital Officer

Chapter 5 Confidentiality

5.1 Confidentiality of Employee Information and Records

5.1.1 To the greatest extent possible, it is important to maintain the confidentiality of employees who disclose information regarding a suspected or actual incident of domestic violence or employees who report a suspected or actual incident to their supervisor or Security when they suspect or witnesses acts of violence in the workplace. Confidentiality may not be kept in situations where maintaining confidentiality could compromise the safety and security of the workplace. Supervisors should contact security if they have questions about workplace safety or ongoing investigations.

5.1.2 The general requirement to maintain employee confidentiality does not mitigate the requirements set forth elsewhere in this NPR for employees and supervisors to report incidents of domestic violence (including sexual assault and stalking) to NASA security, or the requirement for NASA security to report suspected or alleged criminal violations to the OIG.
