The Independent Contractor Test Is Dead & Vicarious Liability Is On The Move - What Is The Final Destination?
The Court of Appeal decision in Barclays Bank Plc v Various Claimants on 28 June 2018 has caused concern across the insurance industry, with the court signalling the independent contractor test is now dead. There has in fact been a recent spate of decisions in the Court of Appeal and Supreme Court that have caused serious concern in the insurance industry. However, the decision of the Supreme Court on 25 July 2018 in James-Bowen & Others v Commissioner of Police of the Metropolis may be the much-needed calm after the storm. This interactive session will critically analyse how we got to this position and where the law is heading. We will look at whether the courts are using the common law to update the law in line with the “gig economy” we now work within, or indeed whether a policy of distributive justice is now influencing the decisions of the courts.
