In two months time we’ll be attending the Total Facilities Exhibition & Conference. This year it’s in Sydney’s new Convention Centre on Glebe Island.
Last year at the 2014 Total Facilities Expo in Melbourne we answered many questions about the Privacy Law Reform changes … in fact many facility managers weren’t actually aware of this change in legislation and the impact it could have to their client base. This year we’ll have more great stories to tell you.
Firstly Shred-X offers degaussing and destruction services on a national basis. These services will completely remove data that is left behind on decommissioned computers. Vast amounts of data can be held on inexpensive USB flash drives or external hard drives. Thieves specifically target digital media to on-sell ‘trade secrets’ and formulate identities of everyday people. Early in 2014 the National Association for Information Destruction (NAID) released the findings of a commissioned study which analysed the amount of information left on recycled computers.
We are also very proud to claim that Shred-X is the ONLY Australian document destruction company with eight (8) NAID AAA certified sites across Australia & a company owned document destruction facility in every state of Australia:
NAID certification auditors verify that protocols are in place to ensure the security of confidential material throughout all stages of the destruction process such as handling, transporting, storing materials prior to destruction, and destroying and disposing of materials responsibly. This also includes any transfer of custody scenarios.
Of interest to many Facilities Management clients is our Cm3 prequalification status for Australian Standards 4801 – Safety Management Systems. Cm3 was developed to assist organisations to meet their legislative duty of care to ensure contractors they engage have processes to safely conduct work. It gives organisations the assurance that the contractors they engage have an OHS management system that has been reviewed by qualified OHS specialists and enables organisations to have an understanding of a contractors occupational health and safety capability prior to them commencing work.
