Section 1.3.2 of the University of Otago Records Management Policy requires that each Faculty, School, Department, Centre or Service Division nominate a records officer or records officers as appropriate to the size of the area concerned, who will undergo regular training and be the primary contact on records management matters for the Corporate Records Service.
To that end a role description has been developed to provide guidance to those nominees on the key tasks involved in the role of Departmental Records Officer.
