From the promised LAND
Policy is hammered out in committees that have certain portions delegated to them. Then the board votes on the adoption of the committee.It could be very possible that the whole Burger King francise could be in violation of Burger King red hat wearing policy.
Corporate Policy is adopted by a group very high in an organization.
Maybe by the Board of Directors or the Management Committee or a subcommittee of one of these boards.
What he was trying to say, so you can understand, is that a policy is only as good as the company that enforces the policy. If they do not enforce the policy, then for all practical matters it does not exist. There are also occasions where policy that was not enforced in the past sets a precedence that will make if difficult if not impossible to enforce in the future.
Now can you understand?
If not..........I would not know how else to help you.
