BRAY CARMEL SIVE CHARLES vs PETRONI ALFRED ET NOE - 903/1991/1 - CIVIL COURT, FIRST HALL, MALTA

DANNI, RESPONSABILITA` TAL-IMPJEGAT - DANNI, RESPONSABILITA` TA` MIN IHADDEM - DANNI, SAFE WORKING ENVIRONMENT

Min jaghti x-xoghol ghandu jipprovdi lill-impjegati tieghu b'dawk l-ghodod necessarji sabiex jigu evitati danni lill-istess impjegati. Jekk il-garr manwali ta' affarjiet tqal jista` jkun ta` hsara ghall-impjegati, huwa dover ta` min jaghti x-xoghol li jipprovdi makkinarju alternattiv, bhal cranes ucineg, ghal dan il-ghan.

Huwa minnu illi l-gurisprudenza recenti tal-Qrati taghna timponi obbligi aktar severi fuq min ihaddem biex jassiguraw "a safe environment" fuq il-post tax-xoghol u li jipprovdi l-mezzi kollha necessarji u mehtiega biex jissalvagwardja li ma jigrux incidenti lill-impjegati tieghu waqt ix-xoghol. Dan pero' kif tajjeb osservaw il-Qrati taghna mhuwiex il-kuncett ta' strict liability tal-Ligi Ingliza u l-istess impjegat huwa wkoll obbligat li jipprova jevita' incidenti li jistghu jwasslu ghall-korriment tieghu u jista' wkoll minhabba n-nuqqas ta' prudenza adoperataminnu jikkontribwixxi ghac-cirkostanzi li jkunu wasslu ghall-korriment tieghu. Jekk ma juzax tali prudenza d-danneggjat jista` jinstab li kkontribwixxa ghad-dannu soffert minnu.
