Operationalizing a compliance program through payroll is a vital component of a company's risk management strategy, serving as both a control mechanism and a crucial link to the broader compliance function. Payroll is instrumental in identifying potential red flags, such as offshore payments, which require meticulous documentation and enhanced internal controls to prevent compliance violations. Tom Fox, a noted expert in compliance, underscores the significant role payroll plays in fortifying compliance programs by aligning with FCPA requirements and preventing fraudulent activities. He advocates for the implementation of demonstrable controls like Approval Certification processes, segregation of duties, and regular review procedures to effectively mitigate compliance risks. According to Fox, by embedding robust controls within payroll operations, companies not only deter potential violations but also ensure compliance is woven into the organizational fabric, thus operationalizing their compliance programs seamlessly.
