Standards and Regulations

Standards and regulations are rules and guidelines established by authorities or organizations to ensure products, services, and processes are safe, reliable, and of consistent quality. Standards set technical or quality benchmarks, often voluntarily, to promote best practices. Regulations are legal requirements that must be followed, enforced by government agencies, to protect public safety, health, and the environment. Together, they help create a common framework for organizations to operate responsibly, maintain safety, and ensure consumers can trust the things they use and rely on.
