ISO 19600:2014

In today’s dynamic regulatory landscape, compliance is more than a legal obligation—it’s a strategic asset. ISO 19600:2014 provides comprehensive guidelines for establishing, developing, implementing, evaluating, maintaining, and improving an effective Compliance Management System (CMS). Tailored for organizations of all sizes and sectors, this standard supports a culture of integrity, transparency, and accountability, aligning compliance with business operations and strategic objectives.

At Quality Asia Certification, we help organizations demonstrate their commitment to lawful and ethical behavior by certifying their systems as per ISO 19600 principles, thereby reinforcing stakeholder trust and minimizing legal risks.

What is ISO 19600:2014?

ISO 19600:2014 Compliance Management System Certification is a non-certifiable guidance standard developed by ISO that offers a risk-based approach to managing compliance obligations. While ISO 19600 itself is not certifiable, Quality Asia Certification evaluates and validates your organization's compliance framework in line with the standard’s best practices—ensuring your internal CMS is robust, responsive, and aligned with international norms.

This guidance integrates smoothly with other management systems such as ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and ISO 45001, offering a holistic compliance structure across your business.
