Acess to personnel files

Does Louisiana have any state legislation governing access to personnel files? If so, would like copy of that section or where to locate it.

Although I do not know Louisiana law, I can recommend a resource put out by BLR, [u]What to Do About Personnel Problems[/u] that I have found very useful when looking up laws that are specific to my state. It contains both National and State-specific laws that impact how you handle employee issues.

You might want to check with your state's Department of Labor, I found all the statutes posted my state's DOL website. If the web option isn't available, just give them a call.

You must give current, former, or their designated representatives access to employers' records of employee exposure to toxic substances, medical records and analyses using employee records. La. Rev. Stat. Ann. 23.1016

State employees are allowed access to their entire personnel files-and they may rebutt any information with which they disagree. La. Rev. Stat. Ann. 17.1235 and 1237.
