http://proethica.org/ontology/intermediate#ConfidentialityofEmployerInformationinPublicAgencyContext
Applied to
Internal State technical assessments
State's litigation strategy in water-rights objection
Balancing with
Loyalty
Stamped Document Ongoing Professional Accountability
Concrete expression
As a State employee, Engineer A is obligated not to share the State's litigation strategy, internal technical assessments, or confidential information about the State's objection with the former private client or its representatives — even though he has personal knowledge of and accountability for the work the State is objecting to
Confidence
0.83
Importance
high
Interpretation
The confidentiality obligation to the current public employer is not suspended by Engineer A's prior involvement in the work being objected to; his institutional isolation is the structural mechanism for honoring this obligation
Invoked by
Former Employer Confidentiality Obligated State Engineer
Tension resolution
Institutional isolation resolves the tension by ensuring Engineer A has no access to the State's confidential litigation information, thereby eliminating the risk of improper disclosure in either direction
Source Evidence
