Vexatious Complaints Sample Clauses

The Vexatious Complaints clause is designed to prevent the misuse of a complaints process by prohibiting parties from making complaints that are frivolous, repetitive, or intended to harass. In practice, this clause allows an organization to identify and dismiss complaints that lack merit or are made in bad faith, often after a pattern of unreasonable or unfounded complaints is established. Its core function is to protect resources and ensure that the complaints process remains effective and fair for genuine concerns, rather than being overwhelmed or abused by vexatious complainants.

Vexatious Complaints. If, as a result of an investigation, a complaint is found to be vexatious, it will be considered a form of harassment and will be dealt with in accordance with this policy.
