According to the concept of vicarious responsibility, an employer may be held legally accountable for the negligent acts of an individual who is using their cell phone for business purposes, or simply has their phone provided by their company. Mobile phones have extended an employer’s liability to broader understanding of the term “in the course of employment”.
