European Commission v United Kingdom (Case C-127/05), [2007] All ER (D) 126 (Jun)
Because Art 5(1) of Directive 89/391 (duty on employers to ensure the safety and health of workers) does not require employers to be subject to no-fault liability, the UK, by restricting the duty on employers to ensure the safety and health of workers in all aspects related to work to a duty to do that only “so far as is reasonably practicable”, has not failed to fulfil its obligations under the Directive.
