Etymology
The term 'noncompliant' is derived from the prefix 'non-', which means 'not', combined with the word 'compliant', which originates from the Latin 'complicare', meaning 'to fold together, to surround'. 'Compliant' itself became commonly used in English in the late 20th century, particularly in legal and medical contexts, where adherence to rules and guidelines is crucial. The usage of 'noncompliant' emerged as a way to describe situations in which individuals or organizations failed to comply with these important directives. Its presence in regulatory frameworks emphasizes the importance of compliance in various sectors, including health care, environmental protection, and corporate governance.
