Hi Diana,
A common question is: 'How long do we really need this data?'
The answer often has less to do with regulations and more to do with business events, such as:
Employee claims
EOC investigations
Class actions
Tax audits
Litigation holds
Internal investigations
Pension and benefits questions
Any one of these events can require records that are years, or even decades, old.
By the time that request arrives, the original payroll or HR system may be long gone.
Historical workforce data isn't retained because regulations require it; it's retained because business events continue long after systems are replaced.
ResNav helps organizations retain access to workforce history without maintaining retired payroll and HR systems. Let's connect to discuss your long-term workforce data strategy.
Best Regards,
Whitney
