Record Keeping Requirements
Amy Polefrone, MPA, HR Strategy Group, LLC

Many of us are not clear on general guidelines pertaining to record-keeping for our business' personnel files and information.  So let's take a look at some important ones: 


 

How Long Should I Keep Job Applications on File?

  

For your businesses, there is no federal standard/requirement for keeping job applications.  However, it is a "best practice" to maintain job applications for one year after the person has applied (resume and/or application).  When disposing of personnel records, it is recommended that you shred/destroy the files to maintain the applicant's privacy.  You can also advise candidates that "your resume will be kept in active files for one year and you will be re-considered if there is a position that more closely fits your qualifications."
