The importance of compliance

ROSES AND THORNS - Pia Roces Morato - The Philippine Star

By definition, compliance is an act or fact of complying to a wish or command.

In general, compliance is about conforming to the rule, a certain specification, a policy, standard or law.

So why therefore is compliance so important? In the workplace for example, compliance constitutes a set of processes used to ensure that a team is able to uphold certain rules that make up the organization they belong to.

For some companies or organizations, it may include what your company stands for such as policies, work ethics and written values.

In business, compliance is so important because it forms a part of your organization’s duties with respect to the community it belongs to while building trust.

In the area of safety, certain products and utilities must comply with standards in order to protect people.

And last but not least, and perhaps at most, especially in recent events, compliance heightens consistency simply by adhering to the rules.

While the hottest topic nowadays revolve on the idea of change, a simple act of compliance can become a powerful tool especially for lasting change.

By training ourselves to abide by a proper code of conduct, errors and misunderstandings can be prevented while providing everyone with a healthy atmosphere not only in the workplace but especially in the community they serve.
