A contractor’s mistake has the TSA warning its former employees that their personal information were mailed to the wrong addresses.
Accenture, a contractor that handles TSA personnel, sent 1,195 documents to the wrong former employees during a recent mailing, according to a letter signed by Richard Whitford, TSA assistant administrator for human capital.
The documents were standard forms that are sent to employees after they leave the government. The forms often list an employee’s Social Security number, birth date and salary. It’s unclear how many forms had that information.
