The disclosure relates to a 5th generation (5G) or pre-5G communication system for supporting a higher data rate after a 4th generation (4G) communication system such as long term evolution (LTE). According to various embodiments, a method for operating a network node in a wireless communication system is provided. The method comprises obtaining slice policy information including a maximum data rate, monitoring a data rate of protocol data unit (PDU) sessions associated with the slice, determining whether a sum of data rates of PDU sessions associated with the slice exceeds the maximum data rate, transmitting, to a second network node, a policy enforcement request message for controlling the sum of data rates of the PDU sessions associated with the slice.
