Understanding the basics of employee personnel files – forwarding from Weintraub Tobin

I have provided below a link to a video (YouTube) from California law firm Weintraub Tobin discussing personnel files – this is a good discussion for every employer to know and to be mindful of, or simply to review, and also can relate to workplace and employer/employee compliance, risk and liability management, privacy, and perhaps even some aspects of ESG.

It should not be necessary for me to add; however, the video and discussion apply only to California people, situations and entities, and only to California law. Please also see my limitations and disclaimer below – and, I am not associated with Weintraub but am merely forwarding their video.

Remember, every case and situation is different. It is important to obtain and evaluate all of the evidence that is available, and to apply that evidence to the applicable standards and laws. You do need to consult with an attorney and other professionals about your particular situation. This post is not a solicitation for legal or other services inside of or outside of California, and, of course, this post only is a summary of information that changes from time to time, and does not apply to any particular situation or to your specific situation. So . . . you cannot rely on this post for your situation or as legal or other professional advice or representation, or as or for my opinions and views on the subject matter.

Also note – sometimes I include links to or comments about materials from other organizations or people – if I do so, it is because I believe that the materials are worthwhile reading or viewing; however, that doesn’t mean that I don’t or might not have a different view about some or even all of the subject matter or materials, or that I necessarily agree with, or agree with everything about or relating to, that organization or person, or those materials or the subject matter.
