HUSTON PERSONNEL SERVICES DESTRUCTION OF RECRUITMENT RECORDS SUMMARY: The Personnel Services Division has a legal obligation to keep recruitment records for two years. In order to keep storage of records to those records that are essential, recruitment files are destroyed after two years. The City attorney has approved destruction of recruitment files from 1996. RECOMMENDATION: The City Council approve Resolution 99-24 to authorize destruction of recruitment files that are over two years old and are no longer legally required to be kept. FISCAL IMPACT: By keeping the storage of records to those that are legally required, the cost of storage is less but is not significant. Storage space, however, is in short supply and adding storage space is not feasible. BACKGROUND: Recruitment files are comprised of applications, test results, and other material gathered from applicants during the recruitment process. Recruitment files may be active up to a year, if not extended. Thereafter, there is very little activity with regard to these files beyond the year; however, we store them for two years before destroying them to fulfill our legal obligation.
