Overview
In this assignment, you analyze a business scenario to summarize the principles of agency law, recommend steps to limit liability and determine the circumstances under which a business might be liable for employee conduct.
Ride-sharing companies are largely hailed as the advent of the gig economy, which is the idea that people do not work as permanent employees for one employer but instead work in a labor market characterized by short-term contracts or freelance work. While creating a new type of entrepreneurship for individuals, a gig economy raises a host of new legal questions about the law of agency for companies utilizing gig workers.
Scenario
Widgets operates a ride-sharing business with over 100 drivers. Your boss has asked you to evaluate Widgets’ legal exposure for the conduct of its drivers. Several drivers have had accidents, and one driver was arrested for driving while intoxicated when providing a ride for a company client. Widgets has no policy for hiring or checking backgrounds and, for some drivers, allows the use of four company vehicles for transporting large groups.
Instructions
Consider the above scenario and complete a 3-4 page memo in which you do the following:
Summarize the main principles of agency law relevant to the scenario.
Identify and accurately explain the liability to the business in the scenario by considering each of the following factors:

The scope of employment.
Agents acting as an employee versus an independent contractor.
When agents commit an intentional tort versus negligence.

Recommend 2-3 significant steps that the business should take to limit its legal exposure related to driver conduct. Support your recommendation.
Note: Remember, you are demonstrating your understanding of the law, so explain the law first and then answer the questions of the assignment. Be informative and show what you know! Provide references from credible and reputable legal sources.

 As a small business owner, you are faced with rising costs (particularly employment costs), insurance, and the like. You decide to hire some friends who wear your business uniform, deal with vendors and customers, and tell their friends and family that they work for you. In one instance, a friend, Leo, orders way too much from a vendor.
Explain agency law terminology, the three ways an agency relationship is created per the chapter reading, and how this area of law applies to the scenario.

How does “scope of employment” factor into a legal liability for Leo’s actions?
If Leo was an employee-at-will – can you fire him? What legal exceptions exist to the EAW? (Be sure to define and explain all terms.)

If the employee in the scenario is an “employee-at-will” – what does this mean and what are the exceptions to firing an employee-at-will? Research a recent lawsuit in the state of Georgia of wrongful termination in violation of the Employment-at-Will doctrine in the last 2 years. Provide the state information and law, facts, parties, and what happened in the case.
