Corporate compliance programs .: Iu54-28/2015E-PDF

This bulletin provides guidance regarding credible and effective corporate compliance programs designed to ensure compliance with the Competition Act (the “Act”), the Consumer Packaging and Labelling Act (except as it relates to food), the Textile Labelling Act and the Precious Metals Marking Act (collectively, the “Acts”). It does so in three parts, by: first, setting out measures that Canadian individuals and businesses should consider in order to minimize their risk of engaging in illegal anti-competitive activities and to detect any illegal activities; second, providing tools to help businesses develop compliance programs. A Corporate Compliance Program Framework setting out the essential components of a credible and effective program has been included with this publication as an appendix; and third, examining hypothetical case studies illustrating how the Competition Bureau may consider the credibility and effectiveness of a compliance program.
