They invariably include fatalities in the workplace, allegations of Gross Negligence Manslaughter against individuals, and offences under the Corporate Manslaughter and Corporate Homicide Act 2007 against corporate bodies.

The Legal Hour airs every Saturday at 9pm on LBC Radio. Outer Temple Chambers’ Employment Law specialist, Daniel Barnett has hosted the show since 2010 and has since featured many members of Outer Temple on his show speaking on various topics.
