Programmatic Relief Sample Clauses
The Programmatic Relief clause establishes specific actions or measures that a party must implement to address or remedy a systemic issue, rather than resolving individual claims. In practice, this may require an organization to change its policies, procedures, or practices—such as updating training programs, revising operational guidelines, or instituting new compliance protocols—to prevent future violations or problems. The core function of this clause is to ensure that broad, structural changes are made to correct underlying issues, thereby reducing the likelihood of recurring problems and promoting long-term compliance or fairness.
