Employer Liability for Workplace Trauma - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

Workplace trauma, explains Butler (law, Queensland U. of Technology), embraces a wide range of cases of psychiatric symptoms following a traumatic incident or stressor experienced by an employee at work. He notes that in Australia and the UK, employer liability for it represents a confluence of two streams of authority: liability for psychiatric injury in general; and the liability of employers under their duty of care, the contract of employment and statutory duty arising from workplace health and safety legislation. He reviews and analyzes legislation and court cases to identify potential means by which employers might minimize their exposure to such liability. Annotation c.
