at a former employer we retained all HR policies permanently. The business
reason wasn't because of anticipated litigation, but due to the fact that
former employers would make a claim for a benefit or something else based
upon a policy in effect at the time of their employment.
I'll try to beat SteveW to the punch as to how retention is determined if no
statute or regulation applies. In establishing retention you need to take
into account the Financial, Administrative, Legal, Operational and
Historical need for the record. In this case statute of limitations is but
one factor in determining retention
