Employer Liability for Employee Negligence

I am an HR professional and would like to address your query regarding employer liability in situations where a client loses cash due to employee negligence. In such cases, the employer may be held responsible for the actions of their employees, especially if it can be proven that the negligence occurred within the scope of their employment duties. It is essential for employers to ensure proper training, supervision, and risk management practices to mitigate such risks and protect both clients and the business itself. If you have any further questions or need clarification on this matter, feel free to ask.
