Iowa Code r. 875-130.4 - Burden of proof and criteria
(1)
Trade secrets. The employer-applicant has the burden of proof
in showing that the information claimed as exempted qualifies as a trade
secret. The commissioner may take official notice that similar information of
the employer-applicant has been deemed a trade secret and may summarily grant
the exemption based on the official notice.
(2)
Relevance of public health and
safety/damage to employer. The employer-applicant has the burden of
proof in showing that the information is not relevant to public health and
safety or that the release of the information would damage the employer.
Notification in writing by the employer is not, in and of itself, sufficient to
allow the employer to obtain the exemption.
