Shredding Solutions for the Work-from-Home Workforce

In an evolving COVID-19 work environment, many businesses are modifying their internal policies to accommodate a workforce which is working from home. In this scenario documents are often generated and printed for various reasons. One area which is extremely important and is often overlooked is how this remote workforce is properly shredding any confidential material generated in the home office. At the present time the data is showing most remote employees do not have home shredders or a dedicated shred box. This leaves a huge potential for a security breech with confidential company information potentially getting into the wrong hands.

The methods to address this issue varies based on the sensitivity of the material. Shredlogix can provide solutions to properly shred and recycle the utmost sensitive company documents.

Problems with In Home Shredders

What seems to be an obvious solution to address the confidential material generated by the remote workforce is riddled with problems. One of the major issues is the cost of these shredders. A quality home shredder will run approximately $300 to $500 dollars. One of these shredders in each employee’s home office will quickly add up. There are definitely less expensive models on the market, but the quality of these shredders comes into play. Another issue with these shredders revolves around the fact that in order for the material to be shredded, one must remove all staples, paper clips and binders from the material. This can be a very time-consuming process to remove this material. Any of these metal items caught in the shredder will cause a jam which overtime will permanently damage the shredder. Another unfavorable aspect to these shredders is one must hand-feed the material into the shredder which is another time consuming and laborious process. Especially if one has a large amount of material to shred, this can take hours or days to complete. Finally, these shredders by design will overheat. With a large volume of shredding, the motors will overheat and cause the unit to shut off. Time then must be set aside to let the shredder cool off before usage again.
