    RDCAA 215.1
    
    System name:
        Voluntary Leave Transfer Program.
    
    System location:
        Records are maintained by the Human Resources Management Offices of 
    the Defense Contract Audit Agency (DCAA). Official mailing addresses 
    are published as an appendix to DCAA's compilation of systems of 
    records notices.
    
    Categories of individuals covered by the system:
        Individuals who have volunteered to participate in the leave 
    transfer program as either a donor or a recipient.
    
    Categories of records in the system:
        Leave recipient records contain the individual's name, 
    organization, office telephone number, Social Security Number, position 
    title, grade, pay level, leave balances, number of hours requested, 
    brief description of the medical or personal hardship which qualified 
    the individual for inclusion in the program, the status of that 
    hardship, and a statement that selected data elements may be used in 
    soliciting donations.
        The file may also contain medical/physician certifications and 
    agency approvals or denials.
        Donor records include the individual's name, organization, office 
    telephone number, Social Security Number, position title, grade, and 
    pay level, leave balances, number of hours donated and the name of the 
    designated recipient.

    transfer of leave from the donor's account to the recipient's account.

    of users and the purposes of such uses:

    therein may specifically be disclosed outside the DoD as a routine use 
    pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 552(b)(3) as follows:
        To the Department of Labor in connection with a claim filed by an 
    employee for compensation due to a job-connected injury or illness.
        Where leave donor and leave recipient are employeed by different 
    Federal agencies, to the personnel and pay offices of any Federal 
    agency involved to effectuate the leave transfer
        The `Blanket Routine Uses' set forth at the beginning of DCAA's 
    compilation of systems or records notices apply to this record system.
