All personnel files are property of the College. It is the responsibility of the employee to ensure that the file contains up-to-date educational attainments and provides the Human Resources Department with updated transcripts and notices of other pertinent achievements. An employee may review his or her file at any time; however, the employee must give prior notice to the Vice President of Human Resources and the review is conducted in the Human Resources Department during a time when the employee is not on duty. A nominal fee may be charged for copies made of any material contained in the personnel file.

These files will be made available only to those persons in the line or staff organization who have the authority to recommend and approve re-employment and/or advancement.
