Record Retention Schedules

A Record Retention Schedule is a plan that outlines how long different types of documents and records should be kept by an organization before they can be destroyed or archived. This schedule helps ensure compliance with laws and regulations, protects important information, and promotes efficient record-keeping. Each category of records has a specified retention period based on legal, operational, or historical significance. By following these schedules, organizations can manage their information responsibly and reduce the risk of keeping unnecessary documents.
