Access and the Terminated Employee

Good Afternoon All:

We are having a discussion about the amount of access a terminated employee can have to (arguably) their information on 
(clearly) our systems.  This came up in context of employees who had terminated, either voluntarily or involuntarily, 
and then found that they did not have access to their electronic W-2 information they had requested while in the employ 
of the College.

In general, do you have policies or processes which dictate what access (if any) a terminated employee may have to wage 
or benefit information?  Does it make a difference if they were fired versus left on their own (moved on) or even 
retired?

Thanks.
