Donald,
ASTM E1034 - 95(2008) Standard Specification for Nuclear Facility
Transient Worker Records
ASTM E1034
Abstract
This specification covers the required content and provides retention
requirements for records needed for in-processing of nuclear facility
transient workers. This specification is not intended to cover specific
skills records (such as equipment operating licenses, ASME inspection
qualifications, or welding certifications), nor does it reduce any
regulatory requirement for records retention at a licensed nuclear
facility. Rather, the records shall contain data elements for the
following information: worker identification; occupational external
radiation exposure; occupational internal radiation exposure; lifetime
occupational radiation exposure history; security screening; medical
approval; and radiation worker training.
This abstract is a brief summary of the referenced standard. It is
informational only and not an official part of the standard; the full
text of the standard itself must be referred to for its use and
application. ASTM does not give any warranty express or implied or make
any representation that the contents of this abstract are accurate,
complete or up to date.
Significance and Use
p>The standardization of nuclear facility transient worker records will
provide the individual transient worker with a greater assurance that
the radiation doses that may be received are within regulatory limits.
This specification establishes a fixed content for nuclear facility
transient worker records. Standardizing the content of these records
will facilitate interfacing with industry-wide record keeping systems,
such as the Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI) Personnel Data System (PADS).
The standardization of nuclear facility transient worker records will
reduce the time required for in-processing of these workers.
1. Scope
1.1 This specification covers the required content and provides
retention requirements for records needed for in-processing of nuclear
facility transient workers.
1.2 This specification applies to records to be used for in-processing
only.
1.3 This specification is not intended to cover specific skills records
(such as equipment operating licenses, ASME inspection qualifications,
or welding certifications).
1.4 This specification does not reduce any regulatory requirement for
records retention at a licensed nuclear facility.
Note 1-Nuclear facilities operated by the U.S. Department of Energy
(DOE) are not licensed by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC),
nor are other nuclear facilities that may come under the control of the
U.S. Department of Defense (DOD) or individual agreement states. The
references in this specification to licensee, the U.S. NRC Regulatory
Guides, and Title 10 of the U.S. Code of Federal Regulations are to
imply appropriate alternative nomenclature with respect to DOE, DOD, or
agreement state nuclear facilities. This distinction does not alter the
required content of records needed for in-processing of nuclear facility
transient workers.
Note 2-This specification does not define the form of the required
worker records (such as a passport or central computerized record
keeping system).

Subject: Retention of Personnel files for Nuclear Power Plant employees
I am currently working with IT to clear legacy personnel data as well as
reinstate the destruction of HR Personnel files. However, we have
encountered a bit of a snag while identifying and processing the older
data.
Initially, the retention used was Term +6 unfortunately, when the last
refresh
of retentions happened someone changed it from Term +6 to indefinate and
combined the retention for Nuclear site employees into this definition.
Previously, we retained the Nuclear personnel records for 100 years on a
seperate retention.
I was curious as we obviously need to update the retention again if
anyone
has an idea what the actual regulations for Nuclear site personnel
records
should be and what standard of retention for our non-nuclear personnel
would
be best practice. Normally, I would address this during the next refresh
but
there is a project deadline and I need to create and get approved
updated
retentions before we can actually start scheduling reviews and
destruction.
