ASP-HR 7: Personnel Records
|
|
Personnel records are kept up to date and contain:
- identifying information;
- emergency contact information;
- application for employment and hiring documents, including job postings, interview notes, and reference verification;
- job description;
- compensation documentation, as appropriate;
- records of education, experience, and training, including first-aid and CPR certification;
- performance evaluations and all documentation relating to performance, including disciplinary actions and termination summaries, if applicable; and
- health information or reports from physical examinations or tuberculosis tests, when applicable.
Interpretation: A program may maintain records in separate files according to its own record keeping system. The program complies with this standard as long as all required information is maintained systematically and in a manner that complies with federal and state laws regarding the required contents of personnel files and confidentiality.
EAP and health records, including health benefits enrollment forms, grievance, complaint, and response documents, and EEOC-related records, must be kept separately from other personnel records and comply with all HIPAA regulations.
Access to personnel records is limited to authorized personnel on a need-to-know basis.
Personnel may review, add, and correct information contained in their records, in accordance with applicable law.
