Well you do research as well.
Okay got a flaw in your agreement re a number of pages ago.
Talking to our HR people (and blaming you for them now demanding mods to our software), we keep records for ten years due to legal requirement to produce Group Certificates (tax thing, not sure what they are called in the US or UK), if a former employee requests one.
A number of details are deleted about an employee after they leave, but address and tax details are retained. After 10 years the employees records are complete erased from our database, due to IRS (tax dept) limitations <insert really weird HR type words> not requiring them to be keeped
There you go, for employers it's to do with a Tax requirement
Think this is similar to work place smoking ban. Most Employers don't give a rats either way, but have enforced it due to legal requirements, or probably more importantly cause they can get sued in later years.
