Identification and Clothing

Are you part of an organisation where many people come and go on a daily basis? Have you experience of an organisation which has a high turnover of personnel? If you do, you’ll know that identity cards, pass cards, key fobs, electronic swipes and cards, photo ID and tags all need accounting for.  You’ll also know that the immediate destruction of these items on the conclusion of their employee’s tenure with the company is essential. Data Destroy offers a complete destruction service for all of these items to ensure they never fall into the wrong hands.

And we shred clothing too. This is an often overlooked component of company security. There are two key reasons for doing so. Firstly there is a need to destroy articles of clothing if the company has gone ahead with a re-brand or there has been an error in manufacture. Launching new apparel for staff means that the concept of ‘uniform’ is jeopardised by having more than one staff look.

The brand itself will suffer as a result of having mismatched staff clothing, so it is important that the old clothing is thoroughly accounted for and destroyed in order for items not to appear elsewhere some time later and cheapening the company image. The same applies to company clothing with incorrect spelling of names or logos, or poor quality printing or embroidering. Protect your image by making sure they are never seen by the public.

Secondly there is the real threat of compromised security. Company clothing that is not used or needed should be destroyed. Large organisations have been susceptible to industrial espionage, sabotage, fraud and theft from criminals who have managed to acquire the apparel worn by staff in their relative professions. People see uniforms as a symbol of trust and unity, and a uniform is sometimes more useful than a key or an open door for those intent on doing damage to a company from within.  

The damage that can be caused by people impersonating security staff or members of the medical profession, for example, can be almost incalculable. Be safe and keep what you have under secure storage and if you are changing, trust us to destroy your old stock.
