delegable

Able to assign

Delegable describes tasks, duties, or authority that can be assigned to someone else.

In legal and organizational contexts, certain responsibilities are considered delegable while others—especially those requiring personal judgment or specific expertise—are not.

Routine paperwork is delegable, but final approval must come from the director.

The term appears frequently in discussions of management, contract law, and fiduciary duties.
