ABSTRACT

Most overseas companies manage and protect their current records as information assets. However, Korean companies lack current records management except for some public companies. This study analyzes job descriptions from job search websites to determine the work scope that overseas companies require for records managers. In this study, 28 overseas companies that tried to hire records managers from job search sites were surveyed. Companies hiring records managers were classified according to the Korea Standard Industrial Classification (KSIC) and then reclassified into five industrial groups. Afterward, job description content was analyzed through MAXQDA 2020. The work scope required by companies in five industry groups was divided into common and special work areas. Records management education and cooperation with employees were most often mentioned, as well as the establishment of policies, guidelines, and processes. Moreover, data management, systems implementation and management, and responses to legal requests and compliance work were commonly required tasks. Thus, records professionals must develop these competencies.
