HR Recordkeeping: Paper And Electronic Personnel Files; What To Store and What To Dump Training Seminar
Document, document, document. That's the # 1 piece of advice many HR directors swear by to ensure compliance with workplace policies and shield their organizations from lawsuits.
In everyday practice, however, that rule generates paper - lots of it. From applications and wage and hour records to benefits paperwork and progressive discipline paper trails, the average HR office is bursting with thousands - even millions - of pieces of paper.
The advent of electronic recordkeeping has only made matters more confusing, as employers try to figure out the rules for maintaining and protecting e-records as well as hard copies. And, if you shred, delete, or lose the wrong file at the wrong time, you could find yourself vulnerable in a number of unpleasant ways.
Our speakers (two experienced employment attorneys who regularly advise clients on these issues) will give you practical tips for reviewing your HR files on a regular schedule and keeping them organized and up to date.
YOU AND YOUR COLLEAGUES WILL LEARN: - The records you must collect and maintain throughout each worker's employment history - and how long you need to hang onto them
- How to handle sensitive HR information - such as medical records or the new I-9 forms - that may require special handling
- The legal pros and cons of storing HR documents electronically (and the best methods for keeping these files safe and secure)
- Which records you must be prepared to produce if you're hit with claims from disgruntled or terminated workers, from ADA and FMLA complaints to discrimination and harassment lawsuits
- Your obligations when employees, supervisors, attorneys, or government officials ask to see your HR files
- How to train your supervisors to document correctly (and which notes or records they should be allowed to keep in their own files)
- Best practices for reviewing and culling your HR files, including a timetable for how long you should retain common types of HR documents
- How to determine when it's safe to scan a document and trash the paper original
- The safest ways to get rid of paper and electronic HR records that you no longer need (and the questions to ask yourself before you shred or delete those records)
