Unit Descriptor This unit covers evaluation of compliance outcomes, and review of regulatory policies, procedures and legislation to improve compliance outcomes. This is typically performed by a manager with responsibility for regulatory officers who enforce and promote compliance with the organisation's enabling legislation (such as customs, quarantine, workplace safety, equal employment opportunity, agriculture, environmental protection, etc). It includes developing compliance measures/targets, evaluating the extent of compliance, reviewing procedures and guidelines to improve compliance, and contributing to new legislation or the review of existing legislation.
In practice, evaluation of regulatory compliance may overlap with other public sector work activities such as managing ethical behaviour and compliance with public sector legislation, managing diversity, risk, resources. No licensing, legislative, regulatory or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of endorsement.
