Should companies self-regulate their actions? Or should a governing body impose rules?
Companies view most of their actions in terms of the profits which they can earn for themselves. The sole reason for companies to exist is the fact that they want to achieve higher profits for themselves.
Rampant and unchecked corporate activity is extremely bad for the society and it’s been one of the key reasons for government intervention in the sector.
The government actively engages in setting rules and a framework for these companies to exist. Since most of them are only concerned about the profits which they make, the governments rightly correct these over a period of time to ensure that they fall in line with the practices that promote overall welfare.
A governing body is must for all industry types which must regulate the directions of the companies. In the past without having such bodies meant companies often flouted rules which resulted in degradation of the resources which the society had and individual problems for all.
A governing body usually monitors the firms and their actions and intervenes only when required. In this sense it is very important to have one so that no unfair practices are followed by the firms in their aim of earning higher profits and harmony can be maintained.
What issues can happen with self or government imposed regulations?
Though, companies are actively trying to implement self-imposed regulations, largely the fact that the government has been stringently adopting the same is the biggest reasons why these policies came into existence at the first place.
While Self Governance should always be encouraged as a means to keep a check, government imposition of regulations is equally important in managing erring companies within the industry.
While self-imposition would mean an auto check on the industry. It is hardly possible, seeing the complex nature of most industries.
On the other hand, government imposition of regulations helps promoting balance and unfair trade practices by the companies which acts as a hindrance not only for competitors at large but also for the consumers which get impacted by the same.

Social contract theorists say that morality consists of a set of rules governing how people should treat one another that rational beings will agree to accept for their mutual benefit, on the condition that others agree to follow these rules as well. Hobbes runs the logic like this in the form of a logical syllogism: We are all self-interested. Each of us needs to have a peaceful and cooperative social order to pursue our interests. We need moral rules in...

What is the government's role in regulation? Should they be responsible for regulating business at all? Shouldn't that fall on the business itself? For instance, in my profession, we have a code of conduct that we must abide by. If we don't, the profession itself will hold us accountable - such that we can be reprimanded and even lose our license to practice. If anything, shouldn't the government just require the business to self-regulate? Thoughts?

The legal requirements governing the content, retention, and destruction of health information most closely resemble a patchwork quilt: various federal and state laws and regulations address issues central to these health information matters. No one reliable scheme exists that addresses all of the issues contained in this chapter. For example, to guarantee compliance with all the requirements, health information managers must consider (1) quasi-legal requirements such as accrediting and institutional standards, (2) professional guidelines, (3) state law, and (4) federal...
