Only 64%………I signed up with my email address. I have been wanting a paper shredder so I can shred bills and sensitive documents with my personal info on them instead of sitting there for a long time scratching everything out and ripping them up into little bits. 2 people in my family had their identity stolen just this past year and I don’t want to be # 3. Thanks!
64% of businesses
I signed up with google reader and the email address in this entry.
I would use the shredder to get rid of all of my husband’s unread mail for the last 22 years!!!
Only 64% of businesses have put in place a clear policy on how to handle documents with sensitive information.
64% is the right answer.
I usually take care where I throw my receipts and other documents containing personal info… This nice shredder could do the job perfectly.
Only 64% and that is scary!
64% thought it would be more
Shockingly, only 64% of businesses have put in place a clear policy on how to handle documents with sensitive information – which no doubt goes some way to explaining why nearly one-third (32%) of employees admit to always throwing sensitive documents directly into the bin!
answer is 64%
Thanks to everyone who took part, this contest has now ended. The winner will be announced tomorrow.
