Allison v London Underground Ltd [2008] EWCA Civ 71; [2008] WLR (D) 45

“The test to determine whether the training an employer was required to provide for his employees was adequate for the purposes of reg 9 of the Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations 1998 was what training was needed in the light of what the employer ought to have known about the risks from the activities of his business. The statutory requirement imposed a higher duty than at common law.”
