Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Corporate Legal Compliance Handbook, Third Edition, provides the knowledge necessary to implement or enhance a compliance program in a specific company, or in a client's company. The book focuses not only on doing what is legal or what is right--the two are both important but not always the same--but also on how to make a compliance program actually work. The book is organized in a sequence that follows how to approach a compliance program. It gives the compliance officer, consultant, or attorney a good grounding in the basics of compliance law. This includes such things as the rules about corporate and individual liability, an understanding of the basics of the key laws that impact companies, and the workings of the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines. Successful programs also require an understanding of educational techniques, good communication skills, and the use of computer tools. The effective compliance program also takes into account how to deliver messages using a variety of media to reach employees in different locations, of different ages or education, who speak different languages.

This book was released on 2015-08-12 with total page 85 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Master's Thesis from the year 2015 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, grade: 1 / A / Distinction, ( Middlesex University in London ), course: Compliance Management, language: English, abstract: This research reports on the current situation of compliance management among business organisations. Compliance management aims to ensure that all participants of a company observe laws and regulations. It is a business process to help the management and the employees to meet requirements and governance guidelines. The following research aims to increase the awareness of compliance management in companies and among the society to decrease business crime and ethical and legal offences. Therefore, the dimension of compliance management is discovered in this work. The first result is that the extension of the topic compliance management is very low. Mostly, just bigger and international companies have already implemented a compliance management as smaller companies suffer under the high costs of the implementation. Different standards evaluated by various institutions provide orientation on how to do responsible business by complying with these standards. It is suggested that compliance management is to be seen beside risk management and ethics, more, compliance management should be seen as requirement for risk management and ethics. A comment way of implementing a compliance management into the structures of the company ́s business is proposed. In this context the GRC – Governance-Risk-Compliance - approach is introduced. As the implementation of compliance management is a very costly process, companies need to be motivated by benefits of this process. In this research the avoidable costs and the return on investment are named to be the biggest benefit of compliance management. To get an idea of how a compliance management process might look like, two frameworks are distinguished with the necessary steps that need to be considered. The management and the employees are considered to the most important part of companies. Therefore, also in terms of compliance management the people involved are the source of success. To narrow the research, its focus is put on the analysis of the tourism industry in Germany. Compared to the generalisation, extreme differences cannot be determined in terms of compliance management. Confirmed is the aspect that the number of big companies implementing a compliance management is higher than the number of small companies.
