Contract and Board Policy Clause Samples

The "Contract and Board Policy" clause establishes the relationship between the terms of the contract and the policies set by the governing board of an organization, such as a school district or corporation. Typically, this clause clarifies whether board policies are incorporated into the contract, or if the contract terms take precedence in the event of a conflict. For example, it may state that employees must comply with both the contract and all current and future board policies, or that the contract overrides any inconsistent policy. The core function of this clause is to ensure clarity and prevent disputes by defining which rules govern the parties' obligations when there is overlap or inconsistency between contractual terms and board policies.
