3 Tips to Stay Compliant by Brett Tolman

1. Companies Fail to Address Issues:
   We get it, as you are running your company and excelling at it, you start to take on more responsibilities then you forget to update your compliance policies within your business. Next thing you know, you are being hit up with an audit or being sued by an employee etc. You want to make sure that you are addressing compliance regulation and policies. You don’t want to have everything you worked so hard to build, be taken away.
   

2. Educate Yourself:
   Make sure you educate yourself and your employees on current policies within the industry and government regulated. You cant have a good compliance program if you don’t know the regulations that impact your business or industry. Try attending a seminar, conference networking, your attorney or Google searches to become/stay informed.
   

3. Dont Hire a “yes” person:
   One big mistake we see is a company that hires a “yes” person to run the compliance program. You want someone who is going to protect your business and have your best interest in mind.

   Note: The company and its executives are protected through candid analyses and feedback.
