UCLA Home / Campus Services / Finance / Controls and Accountability / Defining Controls

Internal controls enable UCLA to conduct business and achieve its objectives while maintaining an environment that focuses on ethics and accountability.

Who needs to know about control practices? To a certain degree, every employee.

What Makes Up Internal Controls? 

The environment, risk, practices, reporting, communication and monitoring are all areas to control practices.
 
Why Are Controls Important? 

Effective control activities help identify priorities, achieve department goals, meet compliance regulations and safeguard University resources.
Who’s Responsible for Controls? 

Actually, everyone is. But some managers bear greater responsibility. We offer guidelines to help clarify your role.
