Contract Violation Claims

Employment torts or contract violations are normally allegations brought forth against an employer, implying that a breach of contract or a violation of public policy occurred.

An employment tort or contract violation under the Federal Tort Claims Act (FTCA) is limited when it comes to the government when its’ employees are negligent within their scope of employment. In other words, an individual may be held responsible for an act or omission in a place where the act occurred because the government is incapable of performing like a private individual.

The way the FTCA establishes what responsibility falls upon an individual is by determining whether their conduct was performed with an element of choice or an element of judgment. Based on that, it’s further determined if it was the government or a private individual.

  • Invasion of employee privacy through drug testing; intrusion of solitude or seclusion of another or their private affairs or concerns; appropriation of name or likeness; public disclosure of private facts; and publicity placing a person in false light
