It provides examples of how negligence applies in different contexts like construction projects. The document also summarizes the Highland Tower collapse case where the developer, consultant, engineer, and neighboring properties were found to have contributed to the collapse due to issues with slope stability and drainage.
Causation in fact is the starting point for determining liability in negligence claims. There must be a causal link between the defendant's actions and the claimant's loss. Causation in fact is evaluated using the "but for" test - but for the defendant's actions, would the loss have occurred? If the loss would have occurred regardless, then factual causation is not established. However, in cases of exposure to toxic substances like asbestos where determining the specific cause is difficult, courts have modified the causation standard so that liability can be apportioned among all possible tortfeasors. An intervening act can break the chain of causation if it was not reasonably foreseeable, such as an unexpected act of vandal
This document discusses several negligence duty of care cases in tort law:
1) Donoghue v Stevenson established that manufacturers have a duty of care to consumers for defects that could cause injury.
2) Smoldon v Whitworth found that a rugby referee owes a duty of care to players to reasonably enforce safety rules and prevent unnecessary risks of injury.
3) Dominion Natural Gas v Collins held that those who install dangerous machines have a duty to take reasonable precautions to prevent injuries, even if they do not own or control the property.

1. The project description is inadequate as the site plan submitted does not meet safety codes and guidelines. Important details about safety risks and impacts of mitigation measures are not analyzed because the final design will be determined after project approval.
2. The DEIR only partially addresses comments submitted during the scoping process. More response is needed to questions about protecting groundwater and the effectiveness of regulatory oversight.
3. As voters will decide the project but not the EIR adequacy, more information should be provided to allow for an informed decision. Important issues raised in public comments must be addressed in detail.
This past September, OSHA released its latest “Top 10” list of most frequently cited workplace safety violations. While the top five remain unchanged, there have been some shifts in the bottom half of the list, including the addition of Fall Protection – Training Requirements (1926.503).
This document provides a safety orientation for workers on a pipeline construction project. It discusses several key safety topics:
- Personal protective equipment like hard hats and steel-toe shoes are required for all workers at all times.
- Special precautions must be taken around power lines and in rough terrain due to the hazards they present.
- All incidents such as injuries or near misses must be reported immediately. There is a zero tolerance policy for violations of life saving rules or safety issues that put health and lives at risk.
- The project involves pipeline construction across multiple states, and precautions will be taken to protect endangered species and historical/cultural sites during the process.
Global CCS Institute - Day 2 - Panel 5 - Defining and Quantifying CCS Risk an...Global CCS Institute
This document discusses long-term liability risks for carbon capture and storage (CCS) projects and outlines key considerations for transferring responsibility over time. It notes that CCS laws establish initial operator obligations but liability could continue under other regimes. Three factors for managing long-term risk are highlighted: project performance, reputation, and potential for future harm. The document also examines issues around using insurance or financial security mechanisms to ensure obligations are met.
1. Slips and trips are the most common cause of workplace injuries in the UK, costing employers an estimated £500 million per year in insurance costs and damages from civil claims.
2. UK health and safety law requires employers and other duty holders to ensure floors are suitable for their purpose and to take steps to prevent slips and trips. Simply displaying wet floor signs is not sufficient to avoid liability if an accident occurs.
3. Proper testing of floor slip resistance, such as using the pendulum test value (PTV) method, and maintaining PTV scores of 36 or higher can help employers demonstrate they have taken reasonable steps to prevent slips and provide a strong defense against civil claims if accidents do

This document discusses various legal issues in engineering design and practice. It introduces laws, regulations, and standards that engineers must consider. Laws come from legislation and court cases, while regulations are administrative rules from agencies enforcing laws. Standards can be voluntary guidelines set by professional groups or mandatory when referenced in regulations. Engineers must understand contract law, tort law principles like negligence and product liability, and how to comply with relevant statutes, regulations, and standards to avoid legal liability.

Bloomberg bna using environmental liability transfers to resolve critical e...John Kowalik
Environmental liability transfers (ELTs) can be used as an alternative way to structure complex contaminated property transactions. ELTs are used to eliminate risk and resolve critical issues during mergers and acquisitions, bankruptcies, and other matters related to corporate environmental responsibility. The session, which will include the presentation of various case studies, will illustrate how an ELT can move an environmentally-distressed site out of stagnation, creating a financed pathway to remediation and redevelopment.
The document discusses the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and its requirements for compliance by local governments. It provides an overview of the ADA, examples of common accessibility issues, steps for conducting an accessibility self-evaluation and developing a transition plan, and potential funding sources and resources. The presentation encourages hiring an ADA consultant to help ensure compliance and avoid potential legal and funding risks from noncompliance.
Emergency Preparedness In Remote Work Zones Updated1.7.09kstewart143
This course involves hands-on training to prepare construction workers and supervisors how to handle an emergency in a remote work zone. The course will account for all hazards – both man-made and natural. Students will learn to plan in advance to manage any emergency situation. They will be taught how to assess the situation, use common sense and available resources to take care of themselves, co-workers and the recovery of their business. Participants will gain understanding of what to expect in any remote work zone situation.
According to OSHA statistics, workers who operate machinery suffer approximately 18,000 amputations, lacerations, crushing injuries, abrasions and more than 800 deaths per year. This presentation details OSHA/ANSI regulations and steps to prevent injuries and deaths.
The document summarizes new OSHA reporting requirements for employers that take effect on January 1, 2015. All work-related fatalities must be reported within 8 hours, and all inpatient hospitalizations, amputations, and losses of an eye must be reported within 24 hours. Employers can report to OSHA by phone or online. The new reporting rules will help OSHA identify workplaces with greater risks and target enforcement and assistance efforts. The Midwest region estimates receiving reports of 3,000 amputations and 10,000 hospitalizations in 2015 due to the new rules.

m249-saw PMI To familiarize the soldier with the M249 Squad Automatic Weapon ...LinghuaKong2
M249 Saw marksman PMIThe Squad Automatic Weapon (SAW), or 5.56mm M249 is an individually portable, gas operated, magazine or disintegrating metallic link-belt fed, light machine gun with fixed headspace and quick change barrel feature. The M249 engages point targets out to 800 meters, firing the improved NATO standard 5.56mm cartridge.The SAW forms the basis of firepower for the fire team. The gunner has the option of using 30-round M16 magazines or linked ammunition from pre-loaded 200-round plastic magazines. The gunner's basic load is 600 rounds of linked ammunition.The SAW was developed through an initially Army-led research and development effort and eventually a Joint NDO program in the late 1970s/early 1980s to restore sustained and accurate automatic weapons fire to the fire team and squad. When actually fielded in the mid-1980s, the SAW was issued as a one-for-one replacement for the designated "automatic rifle" (M16A1) in the Fire Team. In this regard, the SAW filled the void created by the retirement of the Browning Automatic Rifle (BAR) during the 1950s because interim automatic weapons (e.g. M-14E2/M16A1) had failed as viable "base of fire" weapons.
Early in the SAW's fielding, the Army identified the need for a Product Improvement Program (PIP) to enhance the weapon. This effort resulted in a "PIP kit" which modifies the barrel, handguard, stock, pistol grip, buffer, and sights.
The M249 machine gun is an ideal complementary weapon system for the infantry squad platoon. It is light enough to be carried and operated by one man, and can be fired from the hip in an assault, even when loaded with a 200-round ammunition box. The barrel change facility ensures that it can continue to fire for long periods. The US Army has conducted strenuous trials on the M249 MG, showing that this weapon has a reliability factor that is well above that of most other small arms weapon systems. Today, the US Army and Marine Corps utilize the license-produced M249 SAW.
Corporate innovation with Startups made simple with Pitchworks VC StudioGokul Rangarajan
In this write up we will talk about why corporates need to innovate, why most of them of failing and need to startups and corporate start collaborating with each other for survival
At the end of the conversation the CIO asked us 3 questions which sparked us to write this blog.
1 Do my organisation need innovation ?
2 Even if I need Innovation why are so many other corporates of our size fail in innovation ?
3 How can I test it in most cost effective way ?
First let's address the Elephant in the room, is Innovation optional ?
Relevance for customers
Building Business Reslience
competitive advantage
Corporate innovation is essential for businesses striving to remain relevant and competitive in today's rapidly evolving market. By continuously developing new products, services, and processes, companies can better meet the changing needs and preferences of their customers. For instance, Apple's regular release of new iPhone models keeps them at the forefront of consumer technology, while Amazon's introduction of Prime services has revolutionized online shopping convenience. Statistics show that innovative companies are 2.5 times more likely to have high-performance outcomes compared to their peers.
This proactive approach not only helps in retaining existing customers but also attracts new ones, ensuring sustained growth and market presence.
Furthermore, innovation fosters a culture of creativity and adaptability within organizations, enabling them to quickly respond to emerging trends and disruptions. In essence, corporate innovation is the driving force that keeps companies aligned with customer expectations, ultimately leading to long-term success and relevance.
Business Resilience
Building business resilience is paramount for companies looking to thrive amidst uncertainties and disruptions. Corporate innovation plays a crucial role in fostering this resilience by enabling businesses to adapt, evolve, and maintain continuity during challenging times. For instance, during the COVID-19 pandemic, many companies that swiftly innovated their business models, such as shifting to remote work or expanding e-commerce capabilities, managed to survive and even thrive. According to a McKinsey report, organizations that prioritize innovation are 30% more likely to be high-growth companies. Innovation not only helps in developing new revenue streams but also in creating more efficient processes and resilient supply chains. This agility allows companies to quickly pivot in response to market changes, ensuring they can weather economic downturns, technological disruptions, and other unforeseen challenges. Therefore, corporate innovation is not just a strategy for growth but a vital component of building a robust and resilient business capable of sustaining long-term success.
Many companies have perceived CRM that accompanied by numerous
uncoordinated initiatives as a technological solution for problems in
individual areas. However, CRM should be considered as a strategy when
a company decides to implement it due to its humanitarian, technological
and process-related effects (Mendoza et al., 2007, p. 913). CRM is
evolving today as it should be seen as a strategy for maintaining a longterm relationship with customers.
A CRM business strategy includes the internet with the marketing,
sales, operations, customer services, human resources, R&D, finance, and
information technology departments to achieve the company’s purpose and
maximize the profitability of customer interactions (Chen and Popovich,
2003, p. 673).
After Corona Virus Disease-2019/Covid-19 (Coronavirus) first
appeared in Wuhan, China towards the end of 2019, its effects began to
be felt clearly all over the world. If the Coronavirus crisis is not managed
properly in business-to-business (B2B) and business-to-consumer
(B2C) sectors, it can have serious negative consequences. In this crisis,
companies can typically face significant losses in their sales performance,
existing customers and customer satisfaction, interruptions in operations
and accordingly bankruptcy
4. PRESENTERS
Joe Cushman
Joe Cushman of JC Marketing will be speaking on pavement safety and liability. Joe Cushman is one
of Roklin’s New York distributors. Before becoming a distributor for Roklin Systems in 2011, he worked
as a civil/structural engineer for 31 years with National Grid. He graduated from Clarkson University in
1980 and has held a NYS professional engineering license since 1986.
Robert Montgomery
Robert Montgomery will be speaking on safety and OSHA compliance. Robert B. Montgomery,
R.E.H.S., Chief Investigator/Trainer, has more than 35 years of investigative and environmental
management experience including hazardous materials and hazardous waste, compliance auditing,
spill response, safety planning and employee training.
Tamar Swan
Tamar Swan will be speaking on ADA compliance and the safety of your pavements.
ADA trip hazard specifications apply to all federal, state, county and municipal facilities. Damaged
pavement makes it increasingly difficult to travel on cracked sidewalk and handicap ramps.
6. APPLICATION OF THE ROKLIN
SYSTEMS CONCRETE REPAIR
PRODUCTS
FOR BOTH SAFETY AND
DEFERMENT OF
FULL-SCALE REPLACEMENT
7. PERSONAL SAFETY
Pedestrian traffic on sidewalks with deep spall,
pothole, and uneven flags present a considerable
liability for the property owner and can increase
insurance premiums if not promptly attended to in
a manner acceptable to the insurance carrier.
8. Property Owner’s Liability
Property owners usually put off the replacement or
repair of their concrete surfaces that are not
crumbling, severely cracked, or badly-spalled due
to budget constraints. When the insurance carrier
does an inspection or, worse yet, receives a third-party
claim for bodily injury due to a fall, the
owner has to spend money meant for seemingly
higher-priority projects.
9. A Cost-Effective and Reliable Solution
The Roklin Systems concrete repair products,
FlexSet, PolyFlex DS Gray, and Concrete Welder
provide property managers and owners a cost-effective
solution for their concrete and asphalt
surfaces that fall in that middle-ground category
between being acceptable and needing full
replacement now.
10. Preventative Maintenance and
Asset Preservation
When there are numerous sections of subtle
problems on pavement surfaces there is a higher
risk for injury. This high-quantity of small damage
presents the greatest probability for a pedestrian
trip or fall. Without a viable fix, most owners take
their chances and do nothing until they have to, or
until it is too late.
11. Preventative Maintenance and
Asset Preservation
The property’s appearance and value can be
preserved in this cost-effective approach to repair.
Using Roklin’s products to address safety and
defer large replacement costs helps to protect and
maintain the owner’s asset.
12. Asphalt Surfaces
Similar conditions exist for the same reasons on
asphalt surfaces on driveways and parking lots
where owners throw cold patch in these damaged
areas or spend money for a paving contractor to
do full replacement.
13. Asphalt Surfaces
Damage claims do result from poorly-maintained
asphalt and the rate of degradation can be
managed with timely repairs to early-stage
breakdown of pavement by repairing cracks and
potholes before they worsen over time.
15. Three Scenarios Where the
City Is Liable
Many cities around the country are
protected by governmental immunity, which
is a legal term that means a citizen cannot
sue the government. For example, city A
does not have governmental immunity. The
city can be sued as if it were any other
person or company.
16. If a person trips, falls and breaks his arm on a city
sidewalk in City A, that person can simply file a
lawsuit in the appropriate court seeking
compensation for the broken arm. Whether or not
compensation is awarded will depend on whether
the case is settled out of court or goes before a
judge or jury. If the case is settled out of court, this
means that City A simply agrees to pay the injured
person and the injured person agrees to drop the
lawsuit. If a case does not settle, a judge or jury
will decide whether the man with the broken arm
gets compensated for his injuries.
17. City B has a local ordinance stating that the
maintenance of the sidewalks is a property
owner’s responsibility. In City B, the man with the
broken arm would identify the owner of the
property (remember—the person living or working
at a property is not always the owner!) and then
sue that owner in the appropriate court. From that
point on, events would proceed the same as in the
first example.
18. City C is protected by governmental immunity. As a
general rule, people cannot sue City C. The injured
gentleman is out of luck. He could file a suit, but it
would likely be dismissed by a judge and would be
a waste of time and money.
19. There will be a Question and Answer

46. The Americans with Disabilities Act
In 1990 the ADA was introduced by the Department of Justice. The
DOJ revised regulations for Titles II and III of the Americans with
Disabilities Act of 1990. These revisions were published in the
Federal Register on September 15, 2010. These revisions allowed
for the enforcement of accessibility standards called the 2010 ADA
Standards for Accessible Design. On March 15, 2012,
compliance with the 2010 Standards was required for new
construction and alterations under Titles II and III. March 15, 2012,
was the compliance date for using the 2010 Standards for program
accessibility and barrier removal.
47. The Americans with Disabilities Act
Getting around each day is already challenging for
the disabled. For people with disabilities, trip
hazards are a serious issue. Under the Americans
with Disabilities Act (ADA), trip hazards are
defined as a change in any vertical level over 1/4".
48. The ADA and Your Pavement
ADA trip hazard specifications apply to all federal,
state, county and municipal facilities. The most
common ADA trip hazards are found on broken or
lifted sidewalks and driveways, usually at joints or
cracks.
49. ADA Compliance Applies to Public
Or Commercial Property
According to the ADA, trip hazards must be
removed from any public or commercial
sidewalks. Complying with the act allows people
with disabilities to travel safely and more easily.
50. ADA Compliance Applies to Public
Or Commercial Property
Handrails can be installed to prevent wheelchairs
from going off a ramp or to assist walking. Floor
markings may also be used to inform people of an
ADA trip hazard such as a change in height on a
ramp or surface texture.
51. ADA Compliance Applies to Public
Or Commercial Property
Simply stated, if your business allows access to
the public or you have employees, you are liable
to comply.
52. ADA Compliance Applies to Public
Or Commercial Property
Sec. 12161. SUBCHAPTER III - PUBLIC ACCOMMODATIONS AND SERVICES OPERATED BY

The ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) is a law that was enacted
by the U.S. Congress in 1990. Between 2009 and 2012 the laws
were updated. On September 15, 2010, the Department of Justice
issued revised regulations. The rules contain many new
requirements for public accommodations. The laws are always
changing and being updated. Keep your pavement clean and
crack-free to protect yourself, your business and those around you.
