What are Company Standards?

Company standards are defined as the values, beliefs, and performance benchmarks that a company exhibits which go hand in hand with the rules that the company functions by. Company standards determine how your company acts. They can be a set of rules or policies that have to be strictly followed such as guidelines that describe quality, safety, performance, testing, performance, or management systems. They can be specific requirements by the board of directors or liable to law enforcement agencies such as the requirement of medical certification for doctors or credentials for Investment partners. Company standards should clearly reflect your company's aims and objectives, mission, and how you want your company to be represented.
