BACKGROUND:
Safekeeping of documents is one of the vital functions in an organization to preserve its history or even records of success and failures. Relevant information that cannot be found is useless. Documents that are not systematically arranged and organized promote inconvenience. Records which would play an imperative role in every crucial decision making process must be well-protected to conserve its fairness and integrity. Thus, in this concern, a resilient and well thought-out safekeeping rules and regulations must be structured to support every endeavor that would be undertaken and to maintain a trace of the legacy which is being written by NFJPIA Region III.

To clarify on how these documents will be turned-over in the succeeding year. To establish a retention policy of documents to be kept.
DEFINITION OF TERMS:
Council shall pertain to the NFJPIA Region III Executive Board. Officers shall pertain to the incumbent Regional Executive Officers. Documents shall pertain to the documents critical to the Council. Critical shall pertain to the weight of importance of the document.
