Legal and compliance are two interconnected yet separate functions. Legal focuses on the legal framework defined by a set of rules established and regulated by the government. Compliance concentrates on adhering to these rules.
Legal and compliance concepts commonly cause confusion, particularly in a business where one team handles both.
What is compliance?
Compliance is a term used to describe being in accordance with established guidelines or specifications, or the process of becoming so. Compliance can also include efforts to ensure a business is following both industry regulations and government legislation.
What is legal?
Law is a set of rules that are created and are enforceable by social or governmental institutions to regulate behaviour.
Difference between legal and compliance
Compliance teams work on following the law, and legal teams focus on if there is any breach of the law, regulation or restriction either by external or internal forces.
