Compliance refers to an organisation's legal obligation to prescribed statutes and standards. The obligations emanate from a range of sources including government legislation, and industry body codes of practice. These requirements specify not only the need to provide appropriate training and work instruction to staff and contractors, but that this is done in a consistent and timely manner, with validation and audit trail.
Compliance is a mandatory requirement for all organisations operating in New Zealand and the law demands that you act now to provide an effective, robust methodology for compliance and governance management and without this you are at serious risk.
Your organisation must have effective methods for properly addressing major statutory requirements that include health and safety, equal employment opportunity, harassment, privacy, and trade practices.
You will also be required to address relevant specific legislation applicable to your industry.
