Q.Does a request to inspect my personnel file have to be in writing?
A.No. Your request may be either oral or written, or on a form provided by your employer. Information requested on such a form must be solely for the purpose of identifying the requesting employee so as to avoid disclosure to ineligible individuals.
If an oral request goes unheeded, the employee should then present their request in writing. In any subsequent written request the employee should reference the date and time he or she made the prior oral request and to whom the oral request was made.
