SUMMARY AS SUBMITTED

BY PROMULGATING AGENCY.

Regulation 65-23 requires that state agencies retain relevant personnel records during a timely investigation by the Human Affairs Commission under the Human Affairs Law, but that limitation does not reflect charges against other employers over whom the agency has jurisdiction to investigate, nor does the regulation contemplate the federal counterpart receiving files that are ultimately waived to the Agency.

Notice of Drafting for the proposed amended regulation was published in the State Register on September 23, 2016.
