Compliance Metrics: What to Track by User Role

How can user roles and their corresponding metrics be divided within an organisation?

Case Managers

Case Managers are essential for ensuring efficient case handling within compliance programs. Their role involves monitoring open cases, urgent tasks and resolution times. 

They must also monitor case categorisation, including:

• The categories of misconduct
• The anonymity of reports
• the reporting channels 

In addition, investigation quality is a key metric they consider, looking at case substantiation rates, adherence to investigation protocols, and the thoroughness of evidence collection.

A challenge case managers may face in tracking these metrics is managing multiple cases while maintaining confidentiality and conducting thorough investigations under pressure.

Program Supervisors

Program Supervisors bring a different perspective to the table, equally vital to that of case managers. They oversee program performance, looking at case volume, substantiation rates, and average resolution time. 

Their risk management skills come into play as they identify recurring problems and implement corrective actions. Adept at ensuring regulatory compliance and maintaining investigative consistency, they safeguard program integrity.

Experts at identifying systemic risks and strengthening program effectiveness throughout the organisation, they play a key role in ensuring the organisation's overall health and resilience.

Senior Management/External Reporting

Senior Management and External Reporting rely on metrics to gauge program effectiveness. They examine trends in case volume, corrective actions taken, and employee awareness. With a keen eye on risk and compliance, they identify cases that require regulatory disclosure and potential systemic risks. They also look at organisational impact, focusing on averted financial loss and reputational risk mitigation.

Individuals in this key role balance the demands of regulatory compliance while advocating the importance of the program to external stakeholders.
