The need to protect confidential information continues to grow in importance. Data breaches and fraud risks occur when businesses fail to properly dispose of financial records, employee files, and other sensitive documents.
What Skip delivers secure document destruction services with professional shredding methods to help your business meet the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) requirements and the Data Protection Act 2018 standards.
What is confidential waste?
Confidential waste includes any documents containing sensitive information that could be exploited if accessed by unauthorised parties. This may include:
- Financial records (old bank statements, invoices, credit card information)
- Legal documents (contracts, insurance documents, proprietary business information)
- Employee files (payroll details, HR records, trade secrets)
- Customer data (names, addresses, contact details)
