What is Compliance?
Compliance is a term that has long been used in a variety of applications. Whether discussing business, healthcare, law, or any other sort of profession, compliance is generally thought of as adhering to rules, policies, specifications or laws. According to the dictionary, compliance is also defined as conformity in fulfilling official requirements
. These definitions simply allow people to understand that compliance is a way of adhering to the rules, or doing something the way that it should be (or has to be) done.
Typically, people will view and understand compliance in terms that apply to them. For example, a construction company will view compliance as adhering to building codes and laws; whereas, a medical professional will view compliance as adhering to their Hippocratic oath. Similarly, compliance is seen both in personal and professional aspects as well. Children will comply with their curfew that is set by their parents, just as the parents will comply with the regulations and codes of conduct that they face in their work.
Simply put, compliance is everywhere. Warren Buffet, to illustrate this point, once said that everyone must be [their] own compliance manager
. What this is meant to imply is that every individual will both face, and must deal with, compliance in their everyday lives; and, it also means that people must understand and hold themselves compliant to rules and regulations in their lives. Nevertheless, it simply means that people must hold themselves accountable, and be responsible to themselves to do the right thing.
As a result of being such an integral aspect of everyday lives, compliance wears many masks. It is often known as thing like:
Quality management and assurance procedures and regulations,
Environmental sustainability policies and social responsibility
Specifications and codes of products, services, or designs
Health and Safety regulations
Employment guidelines
Privacy requirements
Ethics
Security measures
Laws and regulations
Risk management
Generally accepted principles
Processing and reporting guidelines
This list demonstrates that compliance is seen in many different forms, and has the ability to be applied to nearly any industry, business or place in society. This is why—as will be discussed further in this research—that effective management of compliance, and compliance management frameworks and systems are put in place. These frameworks will ensure that no matter what form or type of compliance is used or found, it is understandable, and creates a benefit for business.
Simply put, it doesn’t matter what form compliance takes, it is seen in nearly every aspect of life, and it is incredibly important. Not only is it important to ensure the accountability and proper actions of people, but it is quite often nowadays (with a greater importance than ever placed on environmental and social sustainability, and corporate ethics) seen hand-in-hand in areas such as business development, risk management, and ethics. However, to fully understand what compliance is, the following section will illustrate a brief history of the topic, including where it originated,
