Would like to understand the importance of maintaining Employee Personal Files and more importantly is this a Legal Labour Law requirement.
If it is indeed bound by Labour Laws can someone kindly point out the Act or Article with relevance to this please.
Thanks for your assistance in advance.

Dear Mahesh,
Thank you for your very informative post. It throws a lot of light on the documents that go into the employee file.
Is it also possible to let me know if the Employee file is maintained as general practice hygiene by organisations, or are there any statutory compliance to it in terms of Labour Laws.
I have been scouting for information on this and did not find any labour laws insisting that Employee files be maintained.
Regards

Hi Vijay,
Except to the quality standards and certifications, there is no statutory law which prevails employee file. It is a general practice for an employer to maintain a standard documentation of their employees. This is also used in accessing employee track record, present and the past period of employee employment period.
