Information Destruction Policy

Multiple File Folders with ID numbers labelled Medical Records.Do you have a written policy for data destruction?

If not, you could be opening your company to various fines from the Federal Trade Commission and other regulatory enforcement agencies.

A few sentences in your employee handbook advising employees to destroy sensitive information will not provide protection for your company in the event of discovery of improper disposal or worse a data breach.
