Compliance Audits and Training

Compliance audits help businesses to ascertain whether they are currently meeting their obligations under the Commerce Act and Fair Trading Act.

Auditing can be targeted to high-risk areas, including competitor engagement, participation in industry associations and advertising material. 

Compliance training ensures that staff understand their obligations under the Commerce Act and Fair Trading Act, and helps to prevent breaches while maintaining proper commercial conduct.
