Business Environment • Staff are drowning in information – 90% of
information is “born digital” with few controls to manage
• More use of technology – keep making records• Information growth trends are continuing e.g.
email, drives, tweets, blogs, wikis, mobile devices etc., etc.
• More legislative requirements

• Limited resources – need to be more efficient• Information creation is decentralized at the
desktop – everyone’s a records manager today with little or no training

What You Need To DoWho’s in charge - accountability
Need strong senior management support so
staff know the initiative is important
Need to “walk the talk”
This is not a project but a lifestyle
![Page 10: Records & Information Management (RIM) Risk: Is Your Company Exposed? March 19, 2013](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081604/568168b1550346895ddf737d/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
What You Need To DoKnow Your Records - Conduct an inventory
What records exist? Where they are located? Format? How old are they? Official vs. transitory? How often used? Who is accountable?
![Page 11: Records & Information Management (RIM) Risk: Is Your Company Exposed? March 19, 2013](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081604/568168b1550346895ddf737d/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
What You Need To DoDevelop Common Naming Conventions
Provides an address for the records – where to store them
Records are linked to the retention schedule by the classification scheme
Ensures staff are using the correct terminology to name their documents so documents inherit the correct retention period
![Page 12: Records & Information Management (RIM) Risk: Is Your Company Exposed? March 19, 2013](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081604/568168b1550346895ddf737d/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
What You Need To DoDevelop the retention schedule
Appraise Records Operational Administrative Financial Legal Archival Vital
Most records are NOT covered by legislation – so the business “owners” with legal and tax advice must make the decision as to how long to keep them
![Page 13: Records & Information Management (RIM) Risk: Is Your Company Exposed? March 19, 2013](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081604/568168b1550346895ddf737d/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
What You Need To DoDestroy Annually
Outline records disposition policies and procedures as an established pattern of systematic document retention and destruction
Annual systematic destruction process NOT when you get around to it
Ensure no audits, government investigation or litigation pending
Certificate of Destruction

What You Need To DoTraining and Education
Initial and ongoing training for all employees
Don’t forget about new hires – develop a process with HR
Training should include at a minimum Records Classification – in which “bucket” do they fit Purpose and importance of a retention schedule Risks to the organization for not following it Official v.s. transitory records Transfer to offsite storage Destruction practices Legal hold practices

What You Need To DoAuditing & Monitoring for Compliance
Staff need to know this is as important as a financial audit – consequences for non compliance
Internal audit to include records management practices
Provide to departments an ‘audit findings’ report on records/information management compliance
![Page 16: Records & Information Management (RIM) Risk: Is Your Company Exposed? March 19, 2013](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081604/568168b1550346895ddf737d/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
