Who is authorized to have a key to the FSO's accountability file?

The records keeper is authorized to have a key to the Food Service Officer's (FSO) accountability file because this role is responsible for the management and maintenance of documentation related to food service operations. The records keeper ensures that all relevant records are organized, accurate, and accessible, thus needing access to sensitive information to perform their duties effectively. This includes overseeing inventory, food safety documentation, and staffing records, which are crucial for the smooth operation of food service within the Navy.

Other personnel, while they may have an interest or need for certain information, do not have the same level of responsibility or requirements for access as the records keeper. The Food Service Officer and Leading CS may be involved in higher-level decision-making and management, but direct access to the accountability file is specifically designated for the records keeper to maintain data integrity and security.
