Overview

If your company uses job rotation as part of its career development program, there's a chance that employees on rotation could be exposed to sensitive or confidential information from other departments. The same may happen when deploying employees temporarily during crunch time to assist with work outside of their assigned team. In such situation, putting in place a Delegate Confidentiality Agreement is a smart move to protect your company from unwarranted disclosure of information. 

The Delegate Confidentiality Agreement outlines expected conduct from the employee when handling sensitive or confidential information. There's an email script that accompanies the Agreement which you can simply cut and paste into the body of an email and sent to the employee. The work of drafting an email has been done for you! Basically, the Agreement and script can be used as is without any major customisation required. There are input placeholders for a description of project assigned and additional conduct expectation (if required). 

How is the Delegate Confidentiality Agreement Script used?

This template is used when delegating work to administrative-level staff who may be exposed to sensitive or confidential information during the assignment, particularly in situations where the delegate’s usual responsibilities don't typically include access to information of that type.  For example, delegating administrative tasks in the recruiting and hiring process. Your company needs confirmation from the delegate that they understand confidentiality protocols and the consequences of non-adherence. 

Why use a Delegate Confidentiality Agreement Script?

Clearly articulating confidentiality protocols, and requesting confirmation that the delegate understands these protocols, ensures that:
  • The delegate understands confidentiality protocols and the consequences of non-adherence to those protocols
  • Staff members understand company expectations with respect to the handling of sensitive or confidential information, which considerably increases the likelihood that appropriate conduct will be adhered to

What you risk by not using a Delegate Confidentiality Agreement Script?

  • Sensitive or confidential information may be leaked internally and/or externally
  • Staff members do not understand the confidentiality nature of the assigned task.
