One of a series of webinars covering the essentials in running and winning employers liability cases in the modern era. Each webinar will focus on the building blocks you need to be successful in these cases.
The introduction of s69 of the Enterprise and Regulatory Reform Act 2013 changed how personal injury cases against employers have to be run. It did not abolish health and safety regulations. They still exist and employers are required to comply with them.
What did change? How you plead your cases in order to succeed.
After this webinar you will understand:
- What s69 changed and what it did not change
- How the principles in webinar 1 and 2 are relevant

- Breach of duty
- Foreseeability of harm
- Framing your argument to avoid failure – avoiding the new duty of care argument
- The key information and law you need to know in order to win cases
