Purpose of retention schedules

-What’s available for your state?

-General vs agency-specific schedules

Values of a record

Assess your records based on statutory requirements

– Specific state statutes such as BWC or other records

– Civil statute of limitations

– Criminal statute of limitations

Special considerations
