award enforcement

Award enforcement refers to the legal process of ensuring that a decision or award made by a tribunal or arbitration is honored and executed. When a dispute is resolved and an award is issued—often involving compensation or specific actions—the winning party may need to enforce it if the losing party fails to comply voluntarily. This can involve court proceedings to obtain a judgment that recognizes and enforces the award, allowing the successful party to collect what is owed or compel action. Essentially, it’s about making sure that the resolution of a dispute is implemented effectively.
