contents The article develops a parametric model of fairness called "$\varepsilon$-fairness" that can be represented using a single second-order cone constraint and incorporated into existing decision-making problem formulations without impacting the complexity of solution techniques. We develop the model from the fundamental result of finite-dimensional norm equivalence in linear algebra and show that this model has a closed-form relationship to an existing metric for measuring fairness widely used in the literature. Finally, a simple case study on the optimal operation of a damaged power transmission network illustrates its effectiveness.
