Prasad v Ingham’s Enterprises Pty Ltd [2016] QCA 147 is a recent decision of the Queensland Court of Appeal relating to the extent of an employer’s liability for a workplace injury.
The appellant in this case, joins a long line of other personal injury claimants who are able to establish their employee breached its duty of care but falter at proving a link between that breach and their injury. It is not enough to prove that the measures a defendant failed to adopt may have prevented the complainant’s injury. The test is much higher than this and requires that the injury would have been prevented or minimised.
