The Enterprise Risk Management and Operational Compliance Committee (ERMOCC) is authorized in its duties by the President’s Advisory Committee on Enterprise Risk Management (PACERM). The Committee has no executive powers or supervisory functions. Rather, it will function in a support role to the PACERM and the Director of Compliance and Chief Privacy Officer on behalf of the entire University.

Membership

The ERMOCC is a standing committee appointed by the PACERM. The Director of Compliance Services and Chief Privacy Officer and the Director of Risk Management & Safety will serve as Co-Chairs. The Deputy General Counsel will serve as the committee’s legal counsel and the Assistant Director of Audit Services will serve as a consultant. Remaining members will be appointed based on knowledge of the University’s key risk areas (strategic, financial, compliance, operational, human capital, safety/legal liability, and reputational), a balance of academic and administrative perspectives, and leadership roles with the University.
