Pursuant to the Missouri Sunshine Law and the Missouri Public Records Law, I hereby request the following records:

Any periodic statistical reports (monthly, quarterly, yearly etc) of pre-employment screening polygraph testing and results.
Any documents containing summary or aggregate data on the demographics of individuals undergoing pre-employment polygraph screening. Demographics to include any of: race/ethnicity, gender, age, disability status.
Any reports or documents regarding complaints alleging gender, race, age or disability bias regarding pre-employment polygraph screening.
Any reports or documents that are inspections, oversight, audits, quality control or assurance of your pre-employment polygraph screening program.

The time period for all of the above to be 1 January 2010 to the current date, or the date of your search, whichever is later.
I am not requesting any records with personally identifiable information of any applicant.

The requested documents will be made available to the general public, and this request is not being made for commercial purposes.

In the event that there are fees, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not.

Mark Harris,

The KCPD does not track the records you are requesting in the first, third and fourth points of your request.

KCPD's Human Resources is currently reviewing documents containing summary or aggregate data to potentially satisfy your second request. Please note, we do not track the exact information requested but may be able to provide summary and aggregate data on newly hired employees who have undergone pre-employment polygraph screening.

I will soon provide you with a cost estimate for the search, research and duplication of fulfilling your second point of request.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
