Active Negligence Clause Samples

The Active Negligence clause defines the responsibilities and liabilities of parties in situations where harm or damage results from a party's direct actions or omissions, rather than from passive or indirect involvement. In practice, this clause clarifies that a party may be held liable if their own affirmative conduct—such as failing to follow safety protocols or directly causing an accident—leads to injury or loss. By distinguishing between active and passive negligence, the clause ensures that liability is appropriately assigned to those whose direct actions cause harm, thereby promoting accountability and reducing disputes over responsibility.
