Fellowes Identity Theft Prevention - Shredders


Use Small Office/Home Office shredder or Commercial Cross-Cut shredder, depending on the size of your office, for optimum shredding performance. Choose a cross-cut shredder that can also be used as a credit card shredder, DVD shredder or a shredder for documents with paper clips and staples so you can destroy more than paper documents. Position shredders near copiers/printers for quick and easy shredding of documents that might be left out on the paper tray. Maintain strict requirements for shredding all customer printed materials the moment they are no longer needed. Printed customer documentation should be shredded regardless of the nature of the content. This prevents time wasted reviewing documents for personal information or personal content being overlooked. Shred all printed employee documentation once it is no longer needed. The same rules for customers, applies to employees. Diligent shredding prevents any personal information about employees from being misplaced. Be sure to use a credit card shredder for destroying expired company credit cards. Make employees aware of shredding practices and how the shredders are used so they will feel comfortable using them.
