Every organisation has a legal responsibility to safeguard sensitive information and dispose of confidential material securely. The organisation is also responsible for any confidential material that's taken outside its premises by any of its employees. This includes both hard copy documents and anything that can be viewed on a computer, laptop or mobile device.

Despite increased awareness of identity fraud over the last few years, crime is still growing at an alarming rate in the UK. And, because we deal with so many pieces of information on a daily basis, we’re all at risk – individuals and organisations alike.

A discarded bank statement, or a snippet of payroll information or a crumpled customer proposal could be all a criminal needs to cause irreparable damage to you and your business

Our latest Keep It Confidential Report, where we looked at shredding in a hybrid working world, shows just how far we must go when it comes to handling sensitive documents.

 

  • 51% believe that hybrid working may have increased the amount of sensitive information being lost or in breach of GDPR rules

  • 46% have seen people leave confidential work-related documents unattended

  • One in four say they do not follow their organisations GDPR policy, do not know of one, or cannot remember the details.

  • 70% of all respondents have either taken printed work documents home, printed documents at home, or both.

  • Of these, 47% say they do not shred these documents once they are no longer needed.

 

These results should be cause for concern, with organisations needing to do more to implement better shredding practices. Download the complete Keep It Confidential Report to learn how your organisation can implement stronger GDPR compliant procedures, from shredding to GDPR training, today.
