Disposal of confidential waste – reminder

14 Sep 2016

Any paper records that contain confidential or person identifying information must be disposed of correctly

Confidential waste

There are two approved ways of disposing of confidential waste – either by using a shredding machine or by making arrangements with Shred-It, the University’s approved supplier of shredding services.    

The “blue-bag” collection service provided by Estates and Facilities is not a sufficiently secure method for disposal of confidential waste.

Papers must be kept in a secure location until disposed of.
