Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

fire warden personal liability

Mollyd90 · 2018-10-25 09:50:59

Hi Sorry this may be the wrong forum. Just wondering if an appointed fire warden in the workplace has personal liablity if deaths or injury if there were a fire. If there were fire hazzards not addressed in the work place. thanks

Hi Molly,

In general no, the obligations in law and therefore the accountability rest with the employer. If you were to deliberately subvent their safe systems of work then you could be prosecuted for that act, but this is a real rarity.
