Which of the following is a reason for reinvestigation?

• A. Annual salary adjustment
• B. Staff meeting scheduling
• C. Changes in a position's risk or sensitivity
• D. Training completion

Answer: (C)

Reinvestigation is triggered when the level of risk or sensitivity of the position changes. When a job’s duties or the access it requires become more sensitive or involve higher security risks, a new evaluation of the individual’s trustworthiness is needed to make sure they still meet suitability standards. This keeps the adjudication up to date with the actual responsibilities someone holds.

The other options don’t reflect a change in the position’s risk or sensitivity. An annual salary adjustment, staff meeting scheduling, or completing training by itself doesn’t alter the nature of the duties or the access level that determine suitability.
