Total Cost of Compliance

Total Cost of Compliance (TCC) refers to the complete expenses a organization incurs to meet legal and regulatory requirements. This includes direct costs like implementing policies, training staff, and inspecting processes, as well as indirect costs such as administrative overhead and potential disruptions to normal operations. TCC helps businesses understand the full financial impact of staying compliant, enabling better planning and resource allocation. It reflects not just the immediate costs but also the ongoing efforts needed to maintain adherence to laws and standards, balancing the importance of compliance with its associated financial burden.
