At its heart, compliance reporting is simply the "proof" that your business plays by the rules. It is the process of documenting that your company follows all relevant laws and ethical standards.
While this was once a "big company" concern, the landscape is shifting. Organizations like stock exchanges and major international partners now demand this transparency from everyone they do business with. In Canada, while much of this is currently voluntary, new laws like Bill S-211 (The Modern Slavery Act) have made reporting mandatory for many to ensure forced labor is kept out of Canadian doorsteps.
You might think these federal laws only target the "giants," but there is a ripple effect. Large corporations are now legally required to report on their entire supply chain—which includes you.
If you are a subcontractor or supplier, your larger clients will soon ask you for detailed information about where your materials come from and how they are made. Reporting on what you do here in Alberta is simple; however, Bill S-211 requires looking further "up the stream" at your own suppliers, which can be a complex and time-consuming process.
