Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The bank can be held responsible for the negligent hiring of Carolina, as they did not investigate the gap in her resume and were not aware of her previous conviction for assault and battery. This failure to properly screen their employees led to the physical attack on a co-worker. Therefore, the most likely true statement is that the bank is guilty of negligent hiring.  It is not appropriate to blame Carolina's actions on the bank or for her to sue the bank for her own actions. Sabotage is not applicable in this scenario.
