California SB513 regulates access to employee personnel records by employers.

California SB513 amends the Labor Code to establish rules for employee access to their personnel records. Employers must maintain records for at least three years after termination and provide access upon request. Access rights are temporarily suspended during related lawsuits. Employers can charge for copies and limit requests to one per year. The bill also outlines procedures for record inspection and copying, including time frames and employer responsibilities. Penalties apply for non-compliance, and employees can seek injunctive relief.
