Not true, this is nothing to do with contract law. Your contract with the landlord under electrical regs are a separate thing.Your contractual duty is to report it (and in writing) to the person who engaged you to do the work.
Your moral duty is to report to HSE if you genuinely believe an immediate danger will be ignored by them.
Not true, under the RIDDOR regulations you have a duty as an employee to report 'dangerous occurrences' which can include potential electrical discharging creating a hazardous situation - EDIT, sorry you're right, i thought you meant reporting it to someone else - under RIDDOR all employees have to report it to the person in charge. Only 'responsible people' should make the actual report to the authorities.Even an employee in a company is only legally required to report a dangerous situation through the chain of command, ie to their immediate supervisor.
In the UK? This wouldn't be a surprise in the US, but if this nonsense has reached the UK it needs pushing back against pronto.this again has been tested in Court where a Doctor stopped at a road accident to help and was held responsible for the treatment of the victim who died.
You would like to think so? I wonder if new tenants have solicitors involved to read the small print before they sign up?Surely they have to get an inspection done on change of Tenancy?
