What happens if a director’s order is not followed?

When a director's order is not followed, possible administrative penalties may be imposed as a consequence. This is critical because a director's order typically carries the weight of regulatory compliance, and failure to adhere to such an order indicates non-compliance with the established regulations governing independent adjusters.

Administrative penalties can vary based on the severity of the infraction and the jurisdiction’s specific guidelines. These penalties might include fines, suspensions, or other disciplinary actions aimed at ensuring that individuals and entities comply with regulations. This mechanism serves to maintain integrity within the profession and ensure that public interests are protected.

The establishment of such penalties helps stress the importance of compliance with orders issued by directors and reinforces the regulatory framework designed to oversee the activities within the industry.
