Here’s how to develop and implement a compliance calendar.
![Page 14: Risk Mitigation with Compliance Calendars](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032618/55b2d61fbb61ebb47c8b4593/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Step 1: Do a Program Assessment
• What regulations apply to me?
• Do regulations have reporting or tracking requirements?
• Are these requirements being met and who is completing them
![Page 15: Risk Mitigation with Compliance Calendars](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032618/55b2d61fbb61ebb47c8b4593/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Focus on potential time and cost savings
Step 2: Management approval and buy-in to
your program.
![Page 16: Risk Mitigation with Compliance Calendars](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032618/55b2d61fbb61ebb47c8b4593/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
An environmental compliance assessment may be of help in determining what regulations
apply to your facility if there are unknowns.
Step 3: Start by listing out reporting requirements by month
• Agency that has the requirement
• Regulatory citation (if applicable)
• Responsibilities

Hospital with multiple locations within Massachusetts.
Faced with keep track of numerous regulatory reporting requirements within these facilities across the state.
Prior to calendar implementation, hospital was disorganized with regulatory permitting and submittals which resulted in regulatory inspection fines.
High turnover in key positions and staff lack of regulatory knowledge as well as site historical knowledge led to non-compliance.
