Allison v London Underground Ltd
Court of Appeal
“The statutory requirement for an employer to provide adequate training for its employees imposed a higher duty than the common law duty which incorporated reasonable foreseeability; the statutory test was what training was needed in the light of what the employer ought to have known about the risks from the activities of its business.”
