We currently have an outside company shred our documents. Procedures are that one person escorts the shred guy through the premises and then out to the truck while he shreds our documents. This was done for internal control. Does anyone else do this or because the shred guy is bonded, once he leaves, our responsibility is released? smile
Thanks!

Who's name will be splattered across the headlines. The bank's or the shred guy's?

We also have an employee present while the shredding takes place.

We have a shred company representative who is escorted through the building by a bank associate. The same bank associate accompanies the shred company rep to the truck and observes the shredding take place. Documentation of the event is then forwarded onto our compliance/loss prevention area. If a truck shows up that is not set up to shred onsite, then we do not let them in the building.
