Vicarious liability in tort law: when are employers liable for the actions of employees? 

Date: Tues 25 February (the session will be held on Microsoft Teams from 5-6pm)

What does the law say about employers being liable for the actions of employees? We will look at the concept of vicarious liability where, under certain conditions, we can hold an employer responsible for the failures of an employee.  

Think about all the technicians who visit your home; if they damage it, would you hold the individual accountable, the company they work for, or both? Tort law gives us the answer!
