(4o) Departmental records relating to benefit claims. In any hearing
19before an appeal tribunal under this section, a departmental record relating to a
20claim for benefits, other than a report specified in sub. (4m), constitutes prima facie
21evidence, and shall be admissible to prove, that an employer provided or failed to
22provide to the department complete and correct information in a fact-finding
23investigation of the claim, notwithstanding that the record or a statement contained
24in the record may be uncorroborated hearsay and may constitute the sole basis upon
25which issue of the employer's failure is decided, if the parties appearing at the
1hearing have been given an opportunity to review the record at or before the hearing
2and to rebut the information contained in the record. A record of the department that
3is admissible under this subsection shall be regarded as self authenticating and shall
4require no foundational or other testimony for its admissibility, unless the
5circumstances affirmatively indicate a lack of trustworthiness in the record. If such
6a record is admitted and made the basis of a decision, the record may constitute
7substantial evidence under s. 102.23 (6). For purposes of this subsection,
8"departmental record" means a memorandum, report, record, document, or data
9compilation that has been made or maintained by employees of the department in

12relates to the department's investigative inquiries to an employer or statements or
13other matters submitted by the employer or its agent in connection with the
14fact-finding investigation of a benefit claim. A departmental record may not be
15admitted into evidence under this subsection or otherwise used under this
16subsection for any purpose other than to prove whether an employer provided or
17failed to provide to the department complete and correct information in a
18fact-finding investigation of a claim.
