Court of Appeal (Civil Division) [UK]

[DOC] Chandler v Cape plc [Judgment]

This appeal is brought by Cape plc (“Cape”), the parent company of Mr Chandler’s former employer. The principal issue is whether Cape owed a direct duty of care to the employees of its subsidiary to advise on, or ensure, a safe system of work for them. The respondent, Mr Chandler, has recently contracted asbestosis as a result of a short period of employment over fifty years ago with Cape Building Products Ltd (“Cape Products”)...[O]nce Cape has been found to have overall responsibility, it must follow that they caused or permitted the breach of duty to Mr Chandler. Even if their role had been only advisory, they would still be under a joint and several liability.
