  14. Negligent Hiring Due Diligence What’s the Opposite of Due Diligence? • Negligent hiring is the flip side of “due diligence”. • When an employer fails to exercise due diligence and a person is harmed by an employee, that employer can be sued. • The name of the legal action used in these cases is called “negligent hiring” or is sometimes referred to as the “negligent hiring doctrine.” EXAMPLE OF LESSON CONTENT

  15. The “Knew or Reasonably Should Have Known” Standard The “knew or reasonably should have known” standard allows a victim to sue an employer for negligent hiring when an employer hires someone who they either knew or, in the exercise of reasonable care, should have known was dangerous, unfit, or not qualified for the position and that injury was foreseeable. Of course, most employers would not hire someone who they knew for a fact was dangerous, unfit or unqualified. However, if such a person was hired, the issue before the judge is whether the employer reasonably “should have known” if they exercised reasonable care. The threat of being sued for negligent hiring is far from theoretical. Lawsuits for negligent hiring are one of the fastest growing areas of tort litigation. Employers are being hit with multi-million dollar jury verdicts and settlements as well as enormous attorneys’ fees. EXAMPLE OF LESSON CONTENT

  16. Respondent Superior Theory & Vicarious Liability • A legal theory called Respondent Superior means literally that the Master must respond when his/her employee commits a wrongdoing while engaged in the scope and course of his/her duties. • The law refers to this as vicarious liability. • Vicarious liability applies in circumstances such as when an employee gets into an accident when driving to an assignment or when an employee accidentally injures someone while trying to perform his or her duties. • In these cases, most employers would agree that an employer would expect to be liable. However, when an intentional crime is involved, there is less clarity. EXAMPLE OF LESSON CONTENT
