We keep ours until 7 years and one month after death of individual. Even if
they have left the company - with the potential for litigation you need to
be able to provide the appropriate records in cases of litigation! Asbestos
exposure is an example of this cases can come back afetr very long periods
with cases against the company.
We do however have archiving facilities off-site, with recall facilities as
and when required.

Subject: how long do notes have to be kept for??
Can I ask how long paper notes have to be kept for staff who have left the
organisation?
There are no items or results in there that come under the COSHH
regulations.
How long must we keep hold of them until they can be shredded?
Thanks
Glenn Raybone
