With reference to the relevant case law, advise Ouma and Puso about the test developedby the court to establish or determine the employer’s negligence regarding the
occupational injuries sustained by the employee and how the test works.
The Foreseeability Test is used to determine whether an employer has failed to take reasonable
steps to protect their employees.
Under the Foreseeability test, an employer is required to have reasonable knowledge of the
potential harm that he or she could cause to his or her employees as a result of his or her
actions or his or her inactions. Factors such as the type of work being done, the environment in
which the work is done, and the probability of harm occurring are taken into account. If the harm
is found to be foreseeable, an employer may be held liable for failure to take reasonable steps
to prevent it.
CASE LAW Van Eeden v Minister of Safety and Security (176/01) [2002] ZASCA 132;
[2002] 4 All SA 346 (SCA) (27 September 2002) : Van Eeden v Minister of Safety and
Security. In the present case, the court applied the test of foreseeability to a claim brought
against the police in which they were alleged to have failed to prevent a crime that could have
been prevented with reasonable assurance. The court held that the police were required to act
in a manner that would have prevented the plaintiff from suffering any harm, and that their
failure to act in that manner was an infringement of that obligation. This case serves as a
reminder of the significance of foreseeability when it comes to determining liability for police
negligence.
In addition to predictability, the court also looks at whether the employer violated his or her duty
of care to his or her employees. That duty of care is to do everything in his or her power to keep
his or her employees safe and healthy. That could include proper training, proper equipment,
and proper supervision. He or she should also have safety protocols in place to prevent
accidents or injuries. Cumcibility is another important factor in determining whether or not the
employer was negligent. To prove negligence, you must prove that the employer did something
or did something that caused the injury. You must show a clear connection between the
employer's conduct and the injury. For example, if the employer didn't take proper safety
measures, it could lead to an accident. If the employer didn't provide proper training, it could
cause an employee to be hurt.
