Criminal law liability in the case of occupational accidents
Die strafrechtliche Verantwortung bei Arbeitsunfällen [en alemán]
La responsabilité pénale en cas d'accidents du travail. [en francés]
Industrialists and others with no previous criminal record are not infrequently brought before the courts and charged with what amounts to criminal negligence as the result of an occupational accident, for carelessness and gross inobservance of safety precautions. This brochure draws the attention of directors, managers at all levels, supervisors and staff to the possible legal consequences of failure to comply with the standards imposed by law, to avoid prosecution and penalties. It reproduces the pertinent articles of the Swiss Criminal Code and gives concrete examples and sentences imposed. Mere negligence may render the convicted person liable to a term of imprisonment if bodily harm - or even the possibility of bodily harm - was caused by his action or failure to take action.
