"Some organizations lump it all together organizationally and thus would
retain the whole info file (personnel and benefits) together for the
long-term."

Although this is the reality of the situation, it causes extra expense
because often, these records are more voluminous than the ones required for
long-term storage.  Extra expense is also incurred if file weeding is
required (a very labor-intensive process).

It is generally better to file this information separately in the first
place.  Then the proper retention periods can be applied and disposal is as
easy as removing entire record serieseseses :o) for the particular year
being destroyed.
