Employee records legal issue?
Recently the boss of our department was fired, i took over his position. He turned over the computer and filing cabinet to me. Today I was going through it and noticed that ALOT of our past employees records are missing. Also missing are his and his wife's employee records. What are the legalities of this. I am in Colorado. As far as his employee file and his wife's, is he legally able to just keep his employee file? From everything I have read we should have records for all of our employees for 7-10 years. But, I can't find anything on an employee keeping their own records. I am curious from a legal stand point is all of this something I need to pursue? How much trouble are we in if we don't have the records? Does it fall on me or him?

You do not need to have any records. Only the employee tax records and SS# are necessary and most companies don't keep personal records on employees other than status which can easily be in the accounting records or company human resources
