Shred on Site

Data is a key business asset today and the more sensitive it is the greater the need to protect it. Using a professional shredding service to destroy sensitive data not only provides the peace of mind of a certified process but also ensures that your business is meeting compliance requirements and doing everything it can to keep that data safe. If you’re not currently using shredding services for your business then there are some very good reasons why it’s worth considering this for the future.

Shredding has become an integral part of operations for many businesses today. It’s the simplest way to protect sensitive business data and could be essential for ensuring legal compliance. If you don’t yet have a shredding system in place – or a reliable shredding partner – there are 7 good reasons why it’s time to start shredding your obsolete documents.

There has been a huge emphasis on the healthcare sector in recent months and the volume of people attending GPs and needing hospital care has risen sharply thanks to COVID-19. That makes it more important than ever before to ensure that patient data and sensitive health and social care information is being safely dealt with. Legal compliance obligations require that documents and files containing patient information are properly disposed of and for many organisations and institutions the only safe way to do that is via an on-site shredding service.
