Managing Regulation, Enforcement and Compliance

Managing Regulation, Enforcement and Compliance is a unique workshop-style program examining the distinct challenges faced by government officials and other professionals who have regulatory, enforcement, security, compliance management, or other risk management/control responsibilities.  

Regulatory and compliance roles that involve the provision of societal protections or the control of harms are a type of government work quite different to delivering services. As budgets get tighter, and public expectations increase, it’s more important than ever for regulators to set effective policies and frameworks to  manage risk, monitor compliance, and solve complex problems. 

This workshop invites participants to take a deep dive into regulatory practice with a focus on social regulation, including the provision of health, safety and security. You’ll discuss and work through a range of cases, each chosen for its ability to illuminate and define ubiquitous dilemmas and emerging approaches.  

Opportunities to reflect on and share your own experiences – and hear others’ stories – will grow your understanding of the pressures faced by regulators and how to respond. 

This compliance management workshop is designed for you if you are:  

• a government official who oversees, supports or runs an organisation with significant regulatory or enforcement responsibilities 
• a non-profit leader 
• a board member who wants to better understand the challenges of risk control and harm reduction. 

Participants come from a broad range of regulatory fields, including (but not limited to): 

• crime control 
• tax compliance 
• environment 
• health

• transportation 
• occupational safety. 

Managing Regulation, Enforcement and Compliance will give you a clear understanding of the core issues in regulatory practice and compliance faced by leaders with regulatory responsibilities.  

Throughout this workshop, you will : 

• explore elements of risk management roles, including compliance audits, regulatory investigations and regulatory reform 
• define success in a regulatory or risk control environment 
• develop strategies for appropriately delegating risk management tasks to industry and third parties 
• look at the decisions involved when choosing regulatory frameworks and models 
• discuss the types of partnerships regulators can form with diverse stakeholder groups without compromising their regulatory missions 
• build the confidence to focus your agency on specific harm-reduction objectives even when the harms don’t align with your organisational structure
