How long can a license be suspended for violations?

A license can be suspended for violations for a period of up to 12 months. This duration is established by regulatory standards and is meant to address serious violations while allowing the possibility of reinstatement after the suspension period. Such a suspension period serves as a disciplinary measure, giving the licensee time to reflect on their actions and adhere to necessary guidelines. License suspensions are usually enforced to protect the public and maintain professional standards within the industry.
