Risk and personal injury

Pre-existing relationships like those between companies and employees establish duty. For instance, employers have a duty to protect their employees from on-the-job danger or personal injury.

In certain situations, an individual may voluntarily assume the risks connected with another persons negligence or potential negligence. Consent forms for taking part in some events like sporting events waive the hosts liability in the event of personal injury to the participant. Even in the absence of a signed agreement, implied assumption of risk can sometimes be used as a defense. Everyone who rides on roller coasters usually have the opportunity to read a posted warning before riding. Electing to participate despite the warning can establish implied assumption of risk. When some one uses an obviously defective product in spite of the known problem, that person can be assumed to understand the risk and deem it worth taking.
