To find out how your company compares with others in your industry, go to www.osha.gov/oshstats/work.html. You will need your companyâs SIC code. You can find âIncidence Rate Calculationâ and âFind Your SIC Codeâ quick links at www.employersclaim.com or www.mycomplink.net.
Store for 1 year: regular statements, pay stubs. Keep either a digital or hard copy of the past yearâs worth of your monthly bank and credit card statements. You should also hold on to pay stubs so that you can use them to verify the accuracy of your Form W-2 when tax season arrives.
You should keep most tax-related documents for a minimum of three years, but it's recommended that you keep them for seven years. If you've gone paperless, then your bank will generally store your statements for seven years, but check to see what your bank's policy is on maintaining its customers' records.
