    A confidentiality policy explains how the company expects its employees

    to treat the information they receive about clients, partners and the
    company and make sure it remains well-protected. This
    sample Employee Confidentiality Policy template is ready to be
    tailored to your company’s needs and should be considered a starting
    point for setting up your employment policies.

    We designed our company confidentiality policy to explain how we


    expect our employees to treat confidential information. Employees will
    unavoidably receive and handle personal and private information about
    clients, partners and our company. We want to make sure that this
    information is well-protected.
    What employees should do:

     Lock or secure confidential information at all times


     Shred confidential documents when they’re no longer needed
     Make sure they only view confidential information on secure
    devices
     Only disclose information to other employees when it’s necessary
    and authorized
     Keep confidential documents inside our company’s premises
    unless it’s absolutely necessary to move them

    personal or potentially sensitive information about an individual, especially if that
    information has been shared in confidence.Oc

    How do you protect confidential information in the workplace?


    Protecting Confidential Information
    Password-protecting sensitive computer files; Marking confidential information clearly as
    such, and ensuring that paper copies are shredded before disposal; and. Ensuring that
    you only disclose confidential information to those who need to know.

    What is the reason for most breaches of confidentiality?


    -Most breaches of confidentiality often occur as a result of carelessness and can be
    avoided through rigorous control over client records by not discussing clients in public
    areas or with persons who do not have a "need-to-know."

    What employees should do:

     Lock or secure confidential information at all times

    devices

    and authorized
     Keep confidential documents inside our company’s premises

     Use confidential information for any personal benefit or profit


     Disclose confidential information to anyone outside of our company
     Replicate confidential documents and files and store them on
    insecure devices

    When employees stop working for our company, they’re obliged to return
    any confidential files and delete them from their personal devices.
