Correct. Although it is desirable for employers to treat employees with dignity and respect, the doctrine of vicarious liability has little to do with that ethos. In fact, employers are generally immune from claims by employees about harm they suffer in the workplace. The system of workers\u2019 compensation is the means by which injuries received at work are covered. Torts such as employment discrimination fall outside that system and are treated somewhat differently, with hurdles of their own. At a certain point, employers do have a responsibility for their employees\u2019 conduct towards each other, but the fairness justification here is framed in terms of employers' relationship to their employees, which is why the question is phrased to ask for the \u201cleast applicable\u201d justification for vicarious liability.<\/div>\n\n
