Records management reminder: Every County employee has a responsibility to manage records

As government employees, managing records is a job requirement for each of us. It is not just a role assigned to admin folks; it’s a part of all jobs, including those at every level of county government.

If you are curious about what those basic responsibilities are, we encourage you to take the Basic Records Management online training. The online class takes just 15 minutes to complete, can be taken anywhere with internet access, and can be retaken at any time. Learn more here in this document, Key Takeaways – Basic Records Management.

For more information, visit the county’s Records Management Program website or contact them at records.management@kingcounty.gov. The Records Management Program, in the Department of Executive Services, provides guidance, resources, and training to all King County employees to assist them with managing King County’s public records according to state and local legal requirements and best practices.
