Securely revoking access and recovering assets when someone leaves
This procedure ensures that physical and logical access is promptly revoked, company-issued equipment is returned, and any post-termination obligations are clear.
CHRO initiates offboarding via the Offboarding intake form — which files into the CHRO offboarding workflow in Linear — as soon as the separation date is confirmed. For involuntary or sensitive terminations, CHRO coordinates with IT and Security in advance, before submitting the form.
Collected devices are wiped (cryptographically erased and reset) and reprovisioned for the next user. Devices that fail wipe verification, or that are end-of-life, are routed to certified destruction per Records Disposal & Certificates of Destruction.
Device images may be retained at the discretion of management for business purposes.
For damaged devices that cannot be wiped, an e-waste service with data-destruction certificate is used. COD retained for 1 year.
