Employer Liability

Employer liability refers to the legal responsibility employers have for the actions of their employees while they are performing job-related tasks. This means if an employee causes harm or injury to someone else—whether through negligence or wrongful acts—the employer can be held liable and required to compensate the affected party. This concept is important for ensuring that workers are safe and that injured parties can seek justice. Employers typically manage this risk through proper training, safety protocols, and liability insurance.
