In 1,000 - 1,400 words, explain the company's and/or Ben and/or Bill's liability as it relates to the situation. Remember to format your paper in APA, use a minimum of two references (one reference can be the text), and your title page and reference page do not count towards your page count.
Bill, who is 21 years old, and Ben, who is 46 years old, work for Flowerpot Ltd as roofers. In the winter the roofs are dangerous. Six months ago, Flowerpot provided safety belts for the roofers to wear. They showed the employees how to use the belts and where they were kept, and put up a notice saying belts should be worn at all times. Bill is illiterate and was away on a training course when the belts were first issued.
Ben thinks it spoils his image to wear the belts because he likes impressing Willie by dancing on the roof. Willie is 52 years old, receiving partial disability benefits, and works part-time as a site safety technician for Flowerpot Ltd. Willie is responsible for ensuring that all roofers wear the safety belt, but he is also responsible for completing a safety inspection of all safety belts before a roofer is allowed on a roof. Additionally, Willie is responsible for reporting roofers who are in violation of this safety protocol. Last week both Bill and Ben were working on a roof.
Neither of them were wearing belts. Ben was dancing about, trying to attract Willies's attention, when he distracted Bill. Both fell from the roof and were seriously injured. Consider the liability of Flowerpot Ltd.
