This bill clarifies the personnel records statute in Massachusetts. It defines key terms such as "employee," "employer," and "personnel record," and outlines the requirements for employers with 20 or more employees to notify employees when negative information is placed in their personnel record, allow employees to review their personnel record, and retain personnel records for at least 3 years after an employee's termination. The bill also provides employees the ability to dispute and correct information in their personnel record and imposes fines for employers who violate the provisions of this law.
