Does this shield from liability in some instances? Say they were using trench boxes and were still killed- is the company still liable?

- SoftTalker 2y agoWell you'd have to ask a lawyer but I think that if they were following regulations and otherwise using "reasonable and customary" safety precautions then yes. Or at least changes who is liable. E.g. if the trench box was properly maintained, properly placed, and failed, then you'd be looking at the trench box manufacturer, not so much the contractor who was using it.
- dboreham 2y agoYou get to make that argument in court.
