Which individual has the authority to remove Background Files from the Pre-Employment Services Division?

The individual with the authority to remove Background Files from the Pre-Employment Services Division is the Sheriff. This authority typically stems from the Sheriff's overarching responsibility for the department and its operations. As the highest-ranking officer, the Sheriff has the final say in matters concerning personnel and administrative processes, ensuring that all activities align with departmental policies and legal guidelines.

The decision to manage sensitive documents, such as Background Files, falls under the purview of the Sheriff to maintain accountability and integrity in the hiring processes. Other individuals or divisions, while important in their respective roles, do not have the requisite authority to unilaterally remove such files. This safeguard helps ensure that the handling of background checks and related documents is consistent and compliant with established standards.
