TELEPHONE AVAILABILITY Clause Samples
The Telephone Availability clause establishes requirements for parties to be reachable by telephone during specified hours or under certain conditions. Typically, this clause outlines the times when a party must be available to receive calls, such as during business hours or in case of emergencies, and may specify contact numbers or personnel responsible for answering. Its core function is to ensure timely communication and responsiveness, thereby reducing delays and facilitating efficient coordination between parties.
