Enterprise Liability

Enterprise Liability is a legal doctrine within the field of tort law that assigns responsibility to an organization for the wrongful acts of its agents or employees based on the entity's control over the enterprise and its operations, rather than on direct fault, thereby distinguishing it from vicarious liability by emphasizing the risks and rewards associated with the enterprise itself.
