The Impact of Compliance Upon Your Industry The Compliance Toolkit

PRLog (Press Release) - Feb. 11, 2013 - In the document "Corporate Compliance Principles", developed by the National Center for Preventive Law, a compliance program encompasses the set of operational methods that a company uses to ensure its activities adhere to legal requirements and broader company values.
Designing effective compliance programs is an important corporate concern for two reasons. First, public harm and corporate injuries potentially resulting from corporate offenses and deviations from company values justify careful management of offense and misconduct risks. Second, under a number of recently developed legal standards -- most notably the Federal Sentencing Guidelines for Organizations, firms with generally effective compliance programs can often significantly reduce or eliminate penalties for offenses that occur despite these programs.

This webinar will provide a compliance toolkit that can be immediately implemented in your company.

Why Should you Attend:
To gain an understanding of the compliance programs that can impact your company and industry.
To identify the business processes that are the most vulnerable to the risk of non-compliance.
To determine how you can implement compliance requirements into your business processes.
To learn about what can happen if compliance requirements are ignored.
