People have their own reasons for needing confidentiality. For example security purposes ,it is necessary that we keep their idententity and information secure and discrete.

In the workplace, a few statutes specify that employers must keep some info about employees confidential. Also, the employer may offer confidentiality about some conversations.

Otherwise. employees have no "expectation of privacy" about workplace info, such as their performance or pay rate. The employer can reveal any and all info about employees which it did not promise to keep confiddential, and have no liability.

If you mean that a confidentiality STATUTE was violated, then you can use the statute's enforcement mechanism, which probably does not start withn a lawsuit, but with a complaint. You probably can never sue an individual employee, only charge the school IF you prevail on the charge.
