I just keep the emails archived in their own folder within my email archive. I can't see how they could easily enforce what you do with them, and suspect the reason they don't want them saved on local machines is so one member of staff doesn't see somebody elses payslip due to a careless mistake on a shared machine. If you're concerned save them on a password protected USB key or similar.

Why would that be 'wrong'? Surely, it's your information, and up to you what you do with it. I could leave my paper payslip clearly visible on my desk, if I wanted. I could scan it and put in on the internet. It's my data. -- Champ We declare that the splendor of the world has been enriched by a new beauty: the beauty of speed.

It's my data. Sure it is, but there's the possibility that doing so would cause your employer issues if somebody (or several people) earning less found out and made a fuss. And that may mean your employer wouldn't want it happening, so despite it being unenforceable, could state a policy. |
