If Mount Royal is provided with an employees consent to release their employee records to WCB, is it expected to sever third party information?
Mount Royal would have to consider each item in the records. The employee has only consented to release of his or her own personal information. Any third party information in the records must be considered in the context of the request from WCB. If WCB can show cause why that information is needed, Mount Royal has the discretion to release it under Section 40(1)(f) if the Workers Compensation Act requires or authorizes such disclosure.
