When can the business documents be destructed?

Most corporate documents should be stored for short period of time, i.e., not longer than 25 years. These documents are off low enduring value, and the place they occupy prevents the employees from finding the required information.

However, the documents can be destructed only upon expiration of the file storage deadline, specified in the documentation plan and/or other legal acts, regulating the document storage, and upon carrying out the document appraisal, and, finally, making decision on its further storage or document destruction. The documents can be destructed only upon confirming the descriptions of long-term storage of files of that year and upon carrying out their appraisal.
