Connecticut has added several burdensome obligations to state statutes that give employees the right to inspect, copy and rebut their personnel files. At the urging of legal aid lawyers and other employee advocates, the legislature passed Public Act No. 13-176 (the Act) despite strong opposition from organizations representing businesses. The Act amends Connecticut’s Personnel Files Act,1 which has been in effect since 1980. Governor Dannel P. Malloy signed the Act into law on June 21, 2013. The new amendments will take effect on October 1, 2013.
