What is compliance?
Compliance refers to a company’s adherence to legal and regulatory requirements as well as internal guidelines and voluntary standards. It encompasses all measures aimed at integrating legal regulations and ethical principles into corporate management.
Compliance ensures that companies not only act in accordance with the law, but also assume ethical and social responsibility. This includes protecting the environment, ensuring fair working conditions and adhering to data protection guidelines.
Why is compliance important for companies?
Compliance is crucial for companies as it helps to fulfill legal and regulatory requirements, protect reputation and strengthen stakeholder trust.
Compliance with laws and internal guidelines minimizes legal risks and prevents financial penalties. Compliance and sustainability go hand in hand, as adherence to environmental and social standards is also part of a comprehensive compliance program.
This promotes social acceptance and positive perception, which contributes to the company’s long-term success. By ensuring that their activities are in line with the applicable regulations, companies can not only guarantee legal certainty, but also optimize their processes and achieve efficiency gains.
