D.13.3 - Worker safety

Worker Safety refers to those activities undertaken to save lives, prevent injuries, and protect the health of America's workers.

The recommended provisional categorization of the worker safety information type follows:

Security category

D.13.3 - Worker safety = {(confidentiality, Low), (integrity, Low), (availability, Low)}

Confidentiality Low

The confidentiality impact level is the effect of unauthorized disclosure of worker safety information on the ability of responsible agencies to protect the health and safety of America's workers. In some cases, premature release of draft worker safety bulletins might adversely affect the effectiveness of agency operations. In general, the consequences of unauthorized disclosure of worker safety information would have a limited adverse effect on agency operations, agency assets, or individuals. Recommended Confidentiality Impact Level: The provisional confidentiality impact level recommended for worker safety information is low.

Integrity Low

The integrity impact level is based on the specific mission and the data supporting that mission, not on the time required to detect the modification or destruction of information. The consequences of unauthorized modification or destruction of worker safety information would have, at most, a limited adverse effect on agency operations, agency assets, or individuals. Unauthorized modification or destruction of information affecting external communications (e.g., web pages, electronic mail) may adversely affect operations and/or public confidence in the agency, but the damage to the mission would usually be limited. Recommended Integrity Impact Level: The provisional integrity impact level recommended for worker safety information is low.

Availability Low

The availability impact level is based on the specific mission and the data supporting that mission, not on the time required to re-establish access to worker safety information. The effects of disruption of access to most worker safety information or information systems would have a limited adverse effect on agency operations, agency assets, or individuals. Recommended Availability Impact Level: The provisional availability impact level recommended for worker safety information is low.
