Boy that's some legalese. If an employee causes injury while acting in the scope of his employment, the employer is legally responsible to the injured party.
Re: employee liability/employer liability
Thank goodness Mr. Roth could translate that. It sounds like you went right to law school, after flunking 7th grade English.
As Mr. Roth points out, damages caused by an employee within the scope of employment cause liability to the employer through the law of agency.
