Internal Referrals Clause Samples
The Internal Referrals clause establishes procedures and expectations for referring matters, clients, or opportunities within an organization or between its departments. Typically, it outlines how employees should direct inquiries or business leads to the appropriate internal teams, and may specify any tracking, reporting, or compensation mechanisms related to such referrals. This clause helps streamline internal processes, ensures that opportunities are handled by the most suitable personnel, and reduces the risk of missed business or miscommunication.
