An
independent contractor in tort
The employer of an
independent contractor is generally not held vicariously liable for the
tortious acts and omissions of the contractor, because the control and
supervision found in an employer-employee or Principal-Agent relationship
is lacking. However, vicarious liability will be imposed in three
circumstances:
where the contractor injures an invitee to the real property of the
employer,
the contractor is involved in an ultra-hazardous activity (one likely to
cause substantial injury, such as blasting with explosives), or
the employer is stopped from denying liability because he has held out
the independent contractor as if he were simply an employee or agent.
