Ethics > Liability
The following information is about Liability.
Liability Defined
A legal notion meaning a legal debt or obligation. The liabilities most often discussed in the Online Ethics Center are those to compensate for injury (to one's person, property, finances, or reputation) or to clean up toxic contamination. Legal liability to compensate for an injury or to clean up contamination does not necessarily require that one have caused the injury or contamination, or that one is guilty in a moral sense. Under the doctrine of strict liability a party may be liable without having been guilty of negligence, for example.
This definition is in context to Ethics. See more contextual defintions for Liability.
