emergency-employment doctrine

Read a random definition: ob metum perjurii

A quick definition of emergency-employment doctrine:

The emergency-employment doctrine is a rule that says if an employee is faced with an emergency situation that they cannot handle alone, they can ask someone else for help. This only applies if the emergency is related to the employee's job and they cannot solve it without assistance.

A more thorough explanation:

The emergency-employment doctrine is a principle that allows an employee to seek help from another person in dealing with an emergency that is within the scope of their duties and cannot be resolved without the assistance of the other person.

For example, a nurse may need to call for assistance from a doctor in an emergency situation where a patient's life is at risk. The nurse is authorized to seek help from the doctor because it is within the scope of their duties and the situation cannot be resolved without the doctor's assistance.

Another example is a police officer who needs to call for backup in a dangerous situation. The officer is authorized to seek help from other officers because it is within the scope of their duties and the situation cannot be resolved without the assistance of other officers.

The emergency-employment doctrine is important because it allows employees to take necessary actions to address emergencies and protect the safety of others, even if it means seeking help from others outside of their immediate team or department.
