Secure document destruction is a vital component to any Privacy Policy – what’s more it is a legal requirement for FSA regulated firms. All financial records must be securely shredded. Institutions including banks, building societies and insurance providers have a duty of care to protect the privacy of their clients' confidential data.
Safeguarding against the misuse of corporate documentation can only be achieved by securely shredding your paper waste on-site. Every business produces waste, however in the financial industry a wide variety of paper waste is created. Surprisingly, sensitive financial documents such as bank statements, loan agreements, financial analysis and even credit card information can end up in the bin. This leaves consumers open to identity theft which is not only embarrassing for the company but against the law. The cost to the business can run into hundreds of thousands of pounds – all of which can be averted by a simple Document Shredding policy.

Every week our bins are emptied and confidential waste is taken to the mobile shredder to be disposed of. It’s not just efficient; it’s a vital process to protect our client’s data.
