How To Identify Confidential Waste
Confidential waste would refer to any kind of information or material that holds sensitive or private information that is required to be handled in such a way that it is prevented from unauthorised access or disclosure.
This can include paper documents, files, records, digital media, or physical media that hold personal, financial, legal, or other sensitive information. It's vital that confidential waste is handled and disposed of securely to remove the chance of data breaches, identity theft, or other threats that could potentially harm individuals or organisations.
Here are some examples of the type of confidential waste we securely destroy and recycle every single day.
- Employee Records
