This paper studies the integration of inclusion of subdifferentials. Under various verifiable conditions, we obtain that if two proper lower semicontinuous functions $f$ and $g$ have the subdifferential of $f$ included in the $\gamma $-enlargement of the subdifferential of $g$, then the difference of those functions is $\gamma $-Lipschitz over their effective domain.
