ISO 37301:2021 Compliance Management Systems
ISO 37301:2021 Compliance Management Systems – Requirements with Guidance for Use
A Compliance Management System, (CMS), gives organisations a structured way to fulfil all compliance requirements, such as:
- Internal Policies and Procedures,
- Codes of Conduct,
- Standards,
- Agreements with Communities or Non-Profit Organizations,
- Statutory, Regulatory, Contractual, and other requirements.
- Court orders, permits, and licenses,
Any organisation, regardless of size, type, or complexity of operation, can use ISO 37301:2021. It equips organisations with a set of tools (policies, processes, procedures, and controls) that allows them to create and maintain a culture of compliance.
Integrity, good governance, proportionality, transparency, accountability, and sustainability are the cornerstones of CMS.
What is ISO 37301:2021?
The ISO 37301:2021 Standard assists in establishing, developing, implementing, evaluating, and improving an effective compliance Management System within an organisation. Furthermore, this Standard provides a framework for ongoing compliance, the outcome of which results in the organisation meeting its requirements and/or obligations.
