Inadvertent disclosure. The Organization uses a third party service provider for payroll administration purposes. On February 27, 2015 the service provider mailed T4 slips to 157 employees of the Organization in Canada. On March 2, 2015, two employees contacted the Organization after receiving T4 slips that did not belong to them. The Organization learned that a computer system error at its service provider caused some of the T4 slips to be mailed to wrong employees. On March 2, 2015, the Organization emailed active employees with directions for returning the envelopes. At the time of reporting this incident, twenty-six (26) T4 slips had not been returned to the Organization, and twenty-eight (28) of those that were returned appeared to have been opened.
