This workshop is a ‘deep-dive’ into the varied and complex world of employment-related records that must be maintained by employers, the laws that govern employment record keeping and advice on managing, organizing, retaining and disclosing those records in what format and for how long. Paper personnel records/files vs. electronic storage and retrieval? We’ll cover it. Former employee personnel files? We’ll cover it. We will also cover a wide variety of reports that must be maintained and/or submitted to government enforcement agencies.
You’ll find answers to the following questions and many more:
- How do you best organize employee personnel records, and what documents should not be in a personnel file?
- What’s the best way to respond to employees, former employees and their attorneys’ requests for personnel records? How much time do I have to provide copies or permit an employee to review his/her personnel file?
- Do employment records have to be kept in paper format, or can they be scanned, stored and reported electronically?
- Record retention – what are the legal requirements and how long should you really keep personnel files and other employment records?
- What specific EEO/employment posters must be maintained, and what has recently changed? What about remote location employees?
- EEO-1 Report – who has to file, how do you do it, and what are the 2018 changes?
