Abstract

Tortious liability of companies, in simpler terms, is about holding big businesses accountable when they do something wrong. Just like individuals can be responsible for their actions, companies can too. The concept of tortious liability of companies refers to the legal responsibility that corporations can bear for their wrongful acts or negligence, resulting in harm to others. Companies can be liable for torts committed by their employees, agents, or representatives acting within the scope of their employment. In today’s business world, understanding this concept is paramount. It serves as a vital cornerstone for maintaining ethical and responsible corporate behavior, safeguarding the rights and well-being of consumers and stakeholders, and ensuring a fair and just business environment. This understanding not only protects individuals and the environment from corporate harm but also shapes the principles of corporate social responsibility and accountability that define modern business practices. In a world where corporations wield immense influence, comprehending tortious liability is essential for upholding legal and ethical standards in the corporate landscape.
