Employer Record Retention Survey Results

Forms

Throughout the month of March, the Division of Retirement and Benefits conducted a survey of employers to help determine a reasonable cutoff date to request verifications of service and salaries based on employer-maintained employee records. The Division would like to decrease research work for employers by setting a date that recognizes when records are no longer available. We received a great response; 64 employers gave us their feedback, and we would like to thank all of the employers who participated in the survey. See the survey results here.

Division staff will be reviewing and analyzing the results. An overwhelming number of employers requested training; therefore, the Division will begin arrangement for a training session.

Additionally, we are looking for employer volunteers for a task force to improve this process. If you are interested, please contact:
