A comparison of unemployment and sickness benefit payment records with
annual railroad compensation reports shows that some employees of your
company were paid unemployment or sickness benefits for every day in
one or more months for which creditable service and compensation was
reported. In order to determine if the reported compensation affects the
payment of benefits for the fully claimed months, we need additional
information from you.
Enclosed is a listing of employees of your company and the month(s) for
which we need additional information about the employee's compensation.
Please furnish the information according to the instructions provided on
page 2 of this letter.
Our authority for requesting this information is explained below. If you
have any questions about this request, please contact us at (312) 751-4805.
Thank you for your cooperation.

......................................................................
Paperwork Reduction Act Notice
The Railroad Retirement Board's (RRB) authority for requesting information
is contained in provisions of the Railroad Unemployment Insurance Act
(45 U.S.C. 355(B), 359(A) and 362(A). Although the Act gives the RRB the
authority to compel disclosure through use of a subpoena, the RRB's
experience has been that employers voluntarily release earnings information
when they know that the RRB uses that information for the limited purpose
of verifying a claim for benefits.
The RRB realizes that many companies have adopted policies regarding
disclosures of personal information needed for proper administration of
the Railroad Unemployment Insurance Act. Information that the RRB
acquires about a person is protected from disclosure except as provided
by law.
