At ADP, our Security Training and Awareness Program is a continuous, dynamic and robust initiative that is designed to develop and maintain a security-focused culture, empower our associates and contingent workers to make responsible, secure decisions and to protect our most valuable assets. We employ a variety of tools, techniques and programs to embed security into our associates’ and contingent workers’ day-to-day professional and personal lives.
All associates are required to take and successfully complete an annual, interactive security training program that includes an overview of key security topics, policies and responsibilities. All contingent workers are required to complete this same training within one week of the start of their contract. Additionally, ADP's security policies are available to both associates and contingent workers on ADP's Information Security intranet (access to intranet may be role dependent). This intranet site provides additional security information to all associates and contingent workers, such as a security newsfeed with tips and best practices, external security resources, emergency response information, security alerts, awareness information, security procedures, and contact information for associates and contractors to ask security-related questions or raise concerns via email or telephone.
To reach and engage as many associates and contingent workers as possible, ADP’s Security Training and Awareness program consists of various methods of delivery. Examples of tools used to include: classroom-based training, webinars, infographics, posters and other visual aids, online training, videos, blogs and portal articles, newsletters, internal social media feeds, intranet sites, etc. Further, ADP has implemented a security ambassador program that is available to both associates and contingent workers to join at their will. This gamified program provides opportunities for our associates and contingent workers to get additional security training and be involved in other security initiatives.
