Shred-on-Site has celebrated our sixth year of successful trading by adding to our ranks, a brand new mobile shredding vehicle. We felt it was such a great achievement, that we should expand our already growing capabilities so more companies can benefit from our services.
NHS Surrey has been fined £200,000 for a massive oversight in their security procedures. This has caused uproar across the nation as we find ourselves paying the price for their improper handling of sensitive data.
So often we overestimate the knowledge of our workforce. We assume all of our employees have a good understanding of Data Protection and are adamant to be secure. Alas, this is rarely the case. Your average worker will have little to no knowledge on Data Protection and certainly won’t pay much attention to curity. Shred-on-Site is urging managers and owners nationwide to equip their team with the paper shredding know-how and facilities. This will enable them to be proficient in maintaining your companies’ security obligations.
Paper shredding confidential data is more than simply complying with the law – it is protecting you from fraud and theft. Data related crimes are on the rise and so too is the amount of data we’re creating. We need to be sure that we protecting this data by disposing of it correctly and consistently.

Even the most efficient businesses, and those that are most dedicated to the paperless office, will end up with some waste paper. Even if you never print a page, your clients and suppliers may insist on sending paper documents, while banks, accountants, and other businesses may also send data and information to you in a paper format.
Have you ever thought about getting in a professional shredding company to handle your shredding needs. Whether it’s disks, folders or just stacks of paper, you will want to make sure that you get your confidential material shredded in accordance with UK legislation, which states that you have a legal duty to destroy all secure documents.
