I am looking for a clarification in the Rules for Disposition of Local Government Records , Section A.53.a Personnel Records – Employment History.  Exactly what does “salary history” consist of?  Is it the record kept in the individual personnel file showing the salary rate as it may (or may not) change year to year?  Or is it the detailed weekly payroll print out showing gross pay, taxes, deductions, etc?

Part of my confusion stems from Section A.52 that says “All records used to create payrolls for local government agency employees” may be disposed after 6 years.

Thank you for any insight you may have!
