Vertical File Cabinets — Expert Answer
What are the specific filing requirements for an employment or HR agency?
Employment and HR agencies handle sensitive candidate and employer data subject to multiple regulations: EEOC record retention requirements (1 year for hiring records, 2 years for government contractors), FCRA requirements for background check documentation, and I-9 requirements (completed for all placed employees). Candidate files contain personal information — SSNs, background check results, references — requiring locked, access-controlled storage. Employer client files contain rate agreements, job orders, and confidential job specifications. Keep candidate and client files in separate filing sections. Establish a retention schedule that maps each document type to its specific legal requirement — employment record requirements are complex and state law often imposes additional requirements.
