Glossary

A culture of compliance is when an organization establishes standards, rules, and policies that aren't simply distributed to the workforce. The organization as a whole takes their compliance serious at a personal level. Each person agrees to abide by the standards, rules, and policies set forth and holds themselves accountable to each other for doing so. This culture can only be accomplished if it is done from the CEO all the way down the organization to the volunteers and/or temporary employees.
