[QUOTE="jopar, post: 265306, member: 11712"] Your post isn't very clear to time spam, when you had your hypo, when the paperwork disposed or where it was disposed at home or in work? But there are a couple of things to consider because this personal data, will come under the Data Protection Act, so it will need to be considered how you broke your employers Data Protection Polices they have to comply with the Data Protection Act... By what you say it sounds as though you had the paperwork at home.. So does your employers policies allow employee's to take clients personal data home, if they do what polices do they have to ensure that any clients personal data is kept secure, stored, period of time it is allowed for being at home and disposal of it. So have you broken any of these polices while the paperwork was there? Now, the actual incident... Can you prove that within an hour or so of throwing the paperwork out, that you either treated or suffered a hypo? If you haven't broken any of your employers data protection policies and you can prove with your meter that you were hypo either before or just after throwing the paperwork away in the manner you did... Your employer would be acting unfairly by giving a written warning... A verbal warning to be more careful when sorting paperwork out, to ensure that you aren't hypo or recovering from a hypo to ensure this mistake isn't repeated would be fair... If how every you are claiming a house move, a hypo that took place hours or days before or that you shouldn't have had the paperwork at home at all, or that you shouldn't have held the paperwork for the period of time you had it ect... Then your employer would be acting fairly giving a written warning, because it's not just about that you incorrectly disposed of clients paperwork incorrectly, putting the client's personal data at risk... But you've breached both the Data Protection Act, but also your employers Data Protection polices that ensure's they and their employee's maintain the Data Protection Act... Actually your employer would be entitled to instantly dismiss you.. [/QUOTE]
