Compliance

Document destruction compliance is now a legal requirement.

Shred-it's document destruction services are designed specifically to comply with the privacy and confidentiality requirements of individuals and organisations. Keeping client and employee information secure isn’t just good business sense – it’s the law.

Information legislation in Ireland is constantly becoming more rigorous, meaning that any organisation that fails to fully comply may face severe and costly penalties.

Legislation, such as the Data Protection Act, states that all private information contained in documents must be securely destroyed in a way that ensures it cannot be recreated. To fully ensure this, secure shredding is the most effective method.

All of our mobile shredding trucks are fitted with exceptionally powerful shredders, which can turn almost any confidential waste you may have - from paper and clipboards to CD disks and USB sticks - into fine confetti, impossible to reconstruct.

All of our document destruction services are fully compliant with current privacy requirements, and support your business to be compliant too.

We stay on top of all compliance developments for your industry and area. Partnering with Shred-it certainly makes good business sense. Please visit our Information Centre to find out more information regarding specific legislation.
