Objectivity Clause Samples
The Objectivity clause establishes a requirement for impartiality and unbiased judgment in the performance of contractual duties or decision-making processes. In practice, this means that parties must base their actions and evaluations on factual evidence and objective criteria, rather than personal interests or subjective opinions. For example, when assessing deliverables or resolving disputes, decisions should be made using standardized measures or agreed-upon benchmarks. The core function of this clause is to ensure fairness and transparency, reducing the risk of conflicts of interest and promoting trust between the parties.
