Maximum Caseloads Sample Clauses
The Maximum Caseloads clause sets a limit on the number of cases, clients, or assignments that an individual or entity can be responsible for at any given time. In practice, this clause may specify a numerical cap, such as a maximum of 20 active cases per social worker or attorney, to ensure manageable workloads. By establishing these limits, the clause helps prevent overburdening, maintains quality of service, and protects both the service provider and recipients from the negative effects of excessive caseloads.
