Vicarious liability
Sylvie Nyamunga and Michael M. Murungi
Negligence - Vicarious liability – liability of an employer for the negligence of his employee – who is an employer – test of control over the acts of the negligence Read More..
Issue:
i. What level of control over the negligent acts of person A would lead to a finding that person B, who is directing person A on the doing of those acts, as being held vicariously liable for the negligence?
Held:
1. Vicarious liability arises when the tortious act is done in the scope of or during the course of one’s employment or authority.
2. In all the circumstances, therefore, the driver was a servant of Salama and he drove the vehicle owned by Salama. The test of “control” was improperly applied by the High court when it came to the conclusion that the resident engineer had control of the way in which the act involving negligence was done.
3. The Resident Engineer had the authority and liberty to tell the driver generally where to work and when to work during the pendency of the contract, but certainly he had no control over how the driver would execute his skill as such driver.
4. Vicarious liability for the actions of the driver continued to operate against Salama Construction and there was no basis for dismissing the suit against it.
Appeal allowed, damages to be paid by Salama Construction along with costs in the High Court.
