Frolic in the law of torts

A frolic in the law of torts is where an employee acts on his/her own without obeying an order. This is especially important when combined with a detour, where the employee makes a temporary physical departure from the service of his employer, because an employer is not vicariously liable through the doctrine of respondeat superior for torts committed by an employee on a frolic and a detour. Similarly, in the law of workers' compensation, an employer is not liable for injuries incurred by an employee during a frolic and a detour. Tort is a legal term that means civil wrong, as opposed to a criminal wrong, that is recognized by law as grounds for a lawsuit. ... Vicarious liability is a form of strict, secondary liability that arises under the common law doctrine of agency – respondeat superior – the responsibility of the superior for the acts of their subordinate and can be distinguished from contributory liability, another form of secondary liability, which is rooted in the tort theory... Respondeat superior, Latin for let the master answer, is a legal doctrine which states that an employer is responsible for employee actions performed within the course of the employment. ... Workers compensation systems (colloquially known as workers comp in North American English or compo in Australian English) provides compensation for employees who are injured in the course of employment. ...

However, there are many exceptions and nuances to this rule. For example, to be a frolic and detour, the activity must be unequivocally unrelated to the employer's business. Thus, when the vice president of a bank traveling on business brought a woman not his wife to his hotel room, and then started smoking, accidentally started a fire, and both died as a result, the vice president's wife and children were still able to recover death benefits. Wiseman v. Industrial Accident Commission, 46 Cal. 2d 570 (1956). The employee's occupation of the room was clearly related to his employment, and regardless of whether his guest was there for a legitimate purpose or not, it was reasonable to expect employees traveling on business to entertain guests in their hotel rooms.
