An employer’s liability claim requires the employee to demonstrate a breach of duty of care.
This is usually when you are in contravention of any government guidelines or advice regarding safety at work or travel.
Examples:-
- Sending an employee to an area affected by the safety issue
- Not providing essential equipment or guidelines
- Making an employee come to work after exposure and infecting others
Avoid this risk by having up to date risk assessments and up to date safety guidelines.
