In this day of identity theft and fraud it is more important then ever to protect yourself and your clients personal information from falling into the wrong hands.  It is simply not enough to throw in the trash or recycle bins and think that you or your clients information is safe.  ID thieves comb dumpsters looking for valuable information on individuals and then using that information to fraudulently steal thousands of dollars from their victims.  You say, "Hey, we already shred.... then set the shred out with the trash"  ID thieves know that the fluffy bags of trash contain the big prizes that they are looking for (YOUR MOST IMPORTANT DATA)... and they have computer software that can re-assemble your shredded documents.  This is why it is important to let the professionals at RMS handle your Information Destruction needs.

With ID theft on the rise, Congress has enacted new legislation over the years to try and protect the public, these acts include but are not limited to HIPAA, HITECH, and FACTA.  Almost every business in America is subject to information protection regulations due to these Acts and now Congress has gotten around to enforcing them and handing our hefty fines for violators.

So what can RMS do for you?

Well, we can offer the following programs:

Free Security Audits - This is a quick check up to see if your company's safeguards for information protection are in place and working.

Free Employee Training - We offer a fifteen minute video on the proper handling of confidential documents by employees and then have an acknowledgement page for them to sign afterwards for you to keep in your personnel files.  This will put your company in compliance.

Help with Information Protection Policies and Procedures and SOP's - We are happy to assist or consult with you on setting your information handling policies. Let us help you understand the HIPAA regulations.

Reduce Labor Costs - We can show you how our scheduled service program will save your company money on the labor you are spending now on shredding and save on the cost of office shredders, plus increase work productivity by having staff focused on core duties.

Audit Protection Insurance - When our shredding service is used we always provide a Certificate of Destruction for your files.  This shows that you properly destroyed the information and keeps you in compliance with the various Federal and State regulations.  For those self shredding... you have no audit trail to show the confidential information was properly destroyed.

Bad Press Protection - They say "any press is good press", maybe in Hollywood...but out here if your company was to have your customers personal information fall into the wrong hands and that news made the newspaper's or local radio and TV ... I'm pretty sure it wouldn't be welcomed press.

Recycled - Obviously you know we do recycling... but I wanted to assure that all shredded paper and electronics are 100% recycled. 

                    
 

- Outsourcing shredding duties allows employees to be more productive in their core responsibilities

- Safety – even small machines can cause injury if they grab clothing or accessories

- Reduced capital and employment expenditures

- Employees are more likely to realize the value of discarded company information

- Company information such as payroll, correspondence, legal and employment issues should not be exposed to most employees
- In-house shredding will not dispose of large volumes of data and may prompt employees to circumvent the destruction process

- Prevent information from being leaked to the public
- Peace of mind
