RECORDS MANAGEMENT
The Federal Records Act (44 U.S.C. 31) and other statutes require all federal agencies to create records that document their activities, file records for safe storage and efficient retrieval, and dispose of records according to Agency schedules.
Policy and Guidance
This Policy establishes principles, responsibilities, and requirements for managing CSOSA’s records to ensure that the Agency is in compliance with federal laws and regulations, CSOSA policies, and best practices for managing records.
On June 28, 2019, the Office of Management and Budget and the National Archives issued a memorandum: Transition to Electronic Records (M-19-21) to ensure that all Federal records are created, retained, and managed in electronic formats by December 31, 2022.
This guidance provides CSOSA employees with requirements for compliance with the Agency’s records management policies when using, managing, and maintaining shared drives.
