Determining liability

Description

Determining liability involves systematically identifying and assigning responsibility for harm, loss, or legal violations within a given context. This strategy ensures accountability by clarifying who is answerable for specific actions or omissions, enabling appropriate remedies such as compensation, restitution, or corrective measures. By establishing clear lines of liability, it helps resolve disputes, deter future misconduct, and protect the rights and interests of affected parties, thereby supporting effective problem resolution and prevention.This information has been generated by artificial intelligence.
