Pandemic clauses
Pandemic clauses are provisions included in contracts to address potential impacts of a pandemic on the parties involved. They outline how obligations, such as delivery of goods or services, may be changed or suspended if a pandemic occurs. These clauses can specify measures for communication, extensions of deadlines, or adjustments in payment terms. The goal is to provide clarity and protection for both parties, ensuring that unforeseen circumstances like a pandemic do not lead to unfair penalties or disputes. Essentially, they help manage risks associated with global health crises in business agreements.
