Our car repairing company offers workers with a uniform. At off-duty and not acting during the course of his employment, a uniformed worker took charge of a client's car at the entrance of the repair workshop. The worker then stole it.
Advise the company
Because is is my homework, please only specify the main issue of the case and briefy explain. I wanna do it by myself.

In this case I would say the Company was liable ..
They should not have allowed an off-duty worker to take a uniform off the premises nor should they have allowed an off-duty employee onto their premises .. (I expect theses an implied 'Duty of Care' or some such towards customers coming onto their premises)
IF, on the other hand, they can produce paper-work showing that the worker had been fired the day before and that other workers had been warned to to allow him/her back onto the premises (and the car was taken from the public highway), I'm going to guess they are not liable ..
