Description:
Ensure your company has an effective records retention program in place that saves time and money.
Companies are overflowing with information. Data is generated at a remarkable rate. What can be kept? What can be destroyed? This timely information helps the persons responsible for drafting document retention policies define the key objectives of the policy and satisfy the necessary legal requirements.

This material provides critical step-by-step guidance to policy-drafters in order to achieve results which are compliant, easily understood and feasible to implement.
