yhteistyövelvoitteet

Yhteistyövelvoitteet refers to obligations to cooperate, particularly within the context of Finnish contract and administrative law. These obligations generally require parties to a contract or participants in an administrative process to act in good faith and assist each other in fulfilling the agreed-upon purposes or in reaching a fair outcome. The precise scope and nature of these obligations can vary depending on the specific legal context.

In contract law, yhteistyövelvoitteet can arise implicitly from the principle of good faith and fair dealing. This means parties are expected to communicate openly, provide necessary information, and avoid actions that would hinder the other party's ability to benefit from the contract. For example, in a construction contract, a client might have a duty to cooperate by providing timely access to the site and necessary approvals to the contractor.

In administrative law, particularly in matters involving permits or public decision-making, yhteistyövelvoitteet can apply to authorities and applicants. Authorities may have a duty to provide clear guidance and assistance to applicants, while applicants are expected to provide accurate and complete information. This cooperation aims to ensure that decisions are made efficiently and fairly, respecting the rights and interests of all parties involved. The concept emphasizes mutual effort towards achieving a common goal or resolving a matter effectively.
