8-13.3-409. Employer records. (1) An employer shall retain records for each employee for a two-year period, documenting hours worked, paid sick leave accrued, and paid sick leave used. Upon appropriate notice and at a mutually agreeable time, the employer shall allow the division access to the records for purposes of monitoring compliance with this part 4.

(2) If an issue arises as to an employee's right to paid sick leave and the employer has not maintained or retained adequate records for that employee or does not allow the division reasonable access to the records, the employer shall be presumed to have violated this part 4 unless the employer demonstrates compliance by a preponderance of the evidence.
