Financial and personnel documents contain valuable information that should remain private. Therefore, a third-party company periodically comes to our department to remove and destroy these documents in a professional manner. Such documents could include budgets, personal health information, payroll information, contracts, credit card information, and medical records.
Of course, you may wish to discard any extremely personal documents yourself. There is no way to guarantee what a worker might see in the process of destroying them, so it is probably best dispose of things like personal letters yourself.
Disposal Boxes
Documents to be destroyed may be placed in the slot at the top of either of the two grey Healthcare Waste Solutions (HWS) boxes that are on the third floor of the Genetic Medicine Building (GMB).
Disposal Locations
One is by the mailboxes near the northwest kitchen, GMB Room 3088.
The other is just outside the department’s administrative offices, GMB Room 3010.
