  • Case examples exploring inappropriate behaviour at work events and the “connection to work” tests.
  • How an employer’s positive duty affects work-related events like Christmas parties.
  • What safety obligations do employers have when injuries occur at events, even outside the workplace.
  • What proactive steps can employers take to comply with the positive duty, and to address hazards and ensure safety at social events.
