COMPLIANCE PAPER (85 pts)
• ASSIGNMENT OVERVIEW
Virtually all business activities conducted in the United States are regulated, not only by governmental entities, but by professional entities as well. Compliance with all federal, state, and local laws and ordinances is a prerequisite to the long term health and survival of any business. And compliance with industry and professional practice standards can be equally important, especially when mandated for accreditation and government contracts qualification. When a business fails to comply with all applicable laws, regulations and standards, the business and the individuals who manage it often face a variety of sanctions, from the loss of an operating license and/or program certification, to civil and criminal sanctions.
• STEPS FOR COMPLETING & SUBMITTING THE ASSIGNMENT
SELECT AN ARTICLE FOR YOUR PAPER
Using one of the websites below, or the UHD library, locate an article to read about a recent compliance breach, enforcement action, agency and/or court decision. Ideally, the article will address an alleged breach that occurred in the past two years. However, it can cover the results of an enforcement action concluding an investigation or prosecution of a breach that occurred more than a year ago. Pick an article about a business or an industry of interest to you.
