Previously published on May 2008
In Fackelman v. Lac d'Amiante du Que., LTEE, et al., 2008 N.J. Super. LEXIS 47 (App. Div. 2008), the New Jersey Appellate Division held that Defendant/Workers' Compensation Insurer, which conducted health and safety studies for the Insured/Employer, did not have a duty to warn and educate the Insured's employees of the dangers of asbestos, because there was no evidence that the Insurer negligently performed the studies nor that the Insurer assumed a duty to supervise workplace safety.
