ΠΕΡΙΓΡΑΦΗ
Vicarious liability is a key concept in Tort law that holds employers legally responsible for the actions of their employees in the course of their duties. This programme offers a clear and practical introduction to how this principle operates within the framework of Cypriot law, alongside an essential overview of workplace negligence.
Participants will explore how liability arises in employment relationships, what it means for an act to be “within the course of employment,” and how courts assess whether an employer should be held accountable for harm caused by an employee’s actions. The programme also introduces core tort law concepts, including duty of care and standard of negligence, and examines real-life cases decided by Cypriot courts.
This engaging programme is ideal for legal professionals, compliance officers, and HR practitioners seeking a solid understanding of civil liability risks in the workplace.
