8. The Subtests > Verbal Analysis
Employees working within organisations have a legislative obligation to monitor
the content of e-mails sent to external bodies and to eliminate potentially
sensitive internal information regardless of the perceived importance of that
information. To guarantee that employees fulfill their legislative obligation and to
prevent the possible leak of exclusive information, employers have prepared
mandatory contracts stipulating this responsibility to be signed by all
stipulating
employees and additionally, inserted a copyright section to every external e-mail
that emphasises the confidentiality of the information provided. Employee's
carelessness in handling information circulated via email may result in serious
punitive actions.

followed by questions (multiple choice and true/false/cannot say)
which need to be answered using the data presented.
