working papers

A quick definition of working papers:

Working papers are documents that are required for certain things. For example, if a young person wants to work, they may need a work permit or employment certificate. This is to make sure that they are old enough to work and that they are safe while working. Working papers can also refer to the records that an accountant keeps when they audit a company's finances. These records show what the accountant did, what they found, and what they concluded about the company's finances.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Working papers are documents that serve as proof of a person's eligibility to work or as records of an audit conducted by an independent auditor.

A work permit is a type of working paper that is required in some states before a minor can be hired for a job. It is an employment certificate or permit that proves the minor is legally allowed to work.

In accounting, working papers refer to the records kept by an independent auditor during an audit. These records include the procedures followed, tests performed, information obtained, and conclusions reached during the audit.

For example, if an auditor is conducting an audit of a company's financial statements, they will keep detailed records of the steps they took to verify the accuracy of the information presented in the statements. These records serve as evidence of the auditor's work and help to ensure that the audit was conducted in a thorough and professional manner.

Overall, working papers are important documents that serve as proof of eligibility or as records of important processes and procedures. They are essential for ensuring compliance with laws and regulations and for maintaining accurate and reliable records.

@JupitersMoons: I would talk to your boss about that cus that sounds very illegal
I'm totally sure it's illegal lol. Like looked into workplace discrimination law and yeah. I think his defense would be "It's to see how many people leave the office" (women's bathroom doors are right next to the elevator, but the camera is literally right in front of the bathroom door
)
