Keeping personnel files organized is a core HR responsibility, both for legal reasons and to keep operations running smoothly, and it keeps you from getting sidetracked during a busy day. This 60-minute HR recordkeeping webinar gives you a framework for employee records and retention that takes government requirements into account.
You'll learn the recordkeeping obligations federal and state employment laws place on employers, along with best practices and tactics you can apply in your organization.
The session covers how to run a records retention audit, set up a records management program with periodic check-ins, decide which records to keep, archive or destroy, and store sensitive information securely.
WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND?
Federal and state employment laws impose recordkeeping obligations on every employer, and disorganized files create legal risk and wasted time. This session helps you build a sensible plan for staying organized and compliant.
It suits HR professionals at all levels, anyone responsible for employee file retention or overseeing employee information, and business owners without an HR manager or staff.
