An employee does something as a company representative with the knowledge of that company and this action is deemed illegal. The company would be legally responsible for this action.
True or False?

  • True
  • False

Explanation: This is a bit of a grey area and would also depend on local laws. In many cases, if the employee did something with the knowledge or approval of the company, then the legal responsibility would probably be with the company not the employee. In some areas or situations, both the company and employee could be held legally responsible.
