(September 2021) Request for employees separated from Buncombe County Sheriff’s Office from 12/01/2018 – 09/24/21

Hello Buncombe County, NC Sherrif's Office (Records Officer),

I'd like to make a public records request for the following information under NC Public Records Law:

Please provide a list of all BCSO employees separated from the BCSO from December 01, 2018 through September 24, 2021 (or as of the date the query is performed).

Please include:
- Employee name
- Title / Position at the time of separation
- Reason for separation
- A copy of the report of separation

"Separation" can also be interpreted to mean that an employee "... left the department, resigned, was terminated from their position" etc.
------

** If you are unable to fill any or all parts of this request, please cite specifically where a reason for denial is justified under NC Public Records Law. **

Thank you for your assistance!

    There is not a “report of separation” that can be produced, like you could run a report for hire date, for example.

     

    HR would have to look in each person’s personnel file to see if this is a letter or anything regarding the separation.

     

    Let me know if this makes sense and how you would like to proceed.

    Good afternoon Aaron,

     

    Thank you for asking. If there is no such thing as a “report of separation” specifically, that is fine. We will interpret this portion of the request to mean — ”Please provide any reason for any employee’s separation. And, if applicable, please provide any corresponding letters of separation or termination.”

     

    Thank you.

    Hello Sunshine Requests,

     

    Please see the attached doc which the requested info.

     

    I am unclear what “report of separation” means. There are no reports that are part of the public personnel file. Maybe they mean termination letter? But that would only apply for a portion of this list.

     

    Let me know how you want to handle that part of the request.

     

    Aaron
