Compliance Into the Weeds

Compliance into the Weeds: Episode 124-Food Fight

Compliance into the Weeds is the only weekly podcast which takes a deep dive into a compliance related topic, literally going into the weeds to more fully explore a subject. In this episode, Matt Kelly (the coolest guy in compliance) and I channel our inner Bluto and Flounder to consider a recent imbroglio around food in a cafeteria led to some powerful compliance lessons.
Some of the highlights include:

  • What are the ethical values of your organization?
  • Why a company must give employees on the ground the flexibility to over-ride rules when ethics demands it?
  • If you fire someone publicly, you need to list the true reasons?
  • How does a company empower its employees?
  • Why documentation is critical for multiple parts of a compliance program?
  • Why an efficient and accurate investigations must be done before termination?
  • How an ethical misstep can significantly harm any sized organization.
