Retaining time for internal audit records
Assign topic to the user
Answer:
Unless your organization belongs to a sector with particular requirements from customers or regulators, there is no “officially” suggested time to retain records of internal audits. 10 years seems to be demanding without any particular return of investment. In my work with organizations I recommend 4 years. With this time frame organizations ensure that they keep internal audit records during the three year cycle of certification.
