Storage periods for orders for personnel: a GIT expert explains


What changed

The mandatory storage periods for personnel documents in an organization in 2021 are regulated by clause 8 “Staffing” of Section II of the mentioned order of the Federal Archive. It includes the following groups of documents:

  • clause 8.1 – hiring, transfer to another job (relocation), dismissal of employees, personnel records;
  • clause 8.2 – anti-corruption;
  • clause 8.3 – certification, advanced training and professional retraining of employees, independent assessment of qualifications;
  • clause 8.4 – rewarding.

These are the HR documents for which has been increased from 2021. For example:

  • vacation schedule – 3 years, not a year;
  • books, magazines, accounting cards, vacation databases - 5 years instead of three.

But for which documents has been reduced since 2021:

  • documents on disciplinary sanctions - 3 years instead of five years;
  • applications regarding the need for foreigners – 1 year instead of five years;
  • documents on the status and measures to improve working conditions and labor protection – 5 years, not permanently;
  • books, log books, databases of industrial accidents, accident records - 45 years, and not constantly.

For a number of documents, the retention period depends on when the paperwork for them is completed:

  • if before 01/01/2003, then they must be stored for 75 years;
  • if after - 50 years.

Usually these are employment contracts, documents on hiring, transfer, dismissal, personal cards of employees. Now such documents are kept for 75 years.

But for which documents a special storage period was established (there was none before):

  • notifications, warnings to employees - 3 years;
  • applications for the issuance of work-related documents and their copies – 1 year;
  • magazines, books of record of labor safety briefing (introductory and on-the-job) – 45 years.

Further, the entire main range of personnel documents with the corresponding storage periods is presented in the tables. Let us explain that the storage period means that the document, after the expiration of the established storage period, can be taken for permanent storage.

Administrative documents

Article 21 of the 2010 List requires that documents on the execution of administrative documents be kept for 5 years by the EPC.

If in Art. 72 of the 2000 List, a single - permanent - storage period was established for books and journals of registration of all administrative and regulatory documents of the organization, then in Art. 258 of Section 1.5 “Documentation support for management and organization of storage of documents” of the new List shows the storage periods for registration logs separately for each group of administrative documents:

258 Books, cards (databases), registers, registration and control logs: (1) Stored in the organization. Subject to acceptance into the state or municipal archives if they can be used as a scientific reference apparatus

(2) On disciplinary sanctions, annual paid vacations, vacations in connection with training, duty, short-term domestic and foreign business trips - 5 l.

a) administrative documents on the main (core) activity Fast. <**>[5] (1)
b) administrative documents for personnel (2) 75 l. (1)
c) administrative documents on administrative and economic activities 5 l.

As you can see, registration forms should be kept for as long as the documents registered in them - this is a very important rule for our work, long suggested by business practice, now enshrined in a regulatory document.
