MLS Lecture: Workplace Crime, Negligence and Risk Transfer

Chris has previously addressed the society on vicarious liability but in the case of Mohamud v William Morrison Supermarket plc; the Supreme Court has simplified the often conflicting judicial messages regarding an employer’s liability for the actions of its employees. That decision will cause alarm for employers but give assurance to those suffering damage/ injury at the hands of an employee committing a criminal or negligent act in their workplace.
