re: Does an employer have any liability if your vehicle is broken into in their parking lot

No, why would they?

quote:

---

The employer could be liable... However, most employer's insurance policy would have an exclusion that would not cover this. Like others have said, if your employer is in fact providing secure parking, then yes, the employer is definitely liable and either them or the 3rd party security company will have to pay out for the claim. If they aren't, then they could still be liable since the theft happened on premises.

This is still wrong

IF, there is a gate and a security guard they may be responsible.

I say this because on two refinery job sites vehicles where broken into. One claimed it was their property but we parked outside of the fenced in security area,"Park at Your own Risk" Then later they fired employees for having guns in their vehicles. Lawsuits followed. Anyway now we can have guns as long as they are locked-up on property.
The other paid for our property damage to vehicles. They may not have had to but did.

My truck was broken into at my workplace parking lot in day light hours. Stereo, CD's stolen, was just ripped out. Total damage was $1750 including having to replace dash. Operation Manager didn't even offer. Someone backed into one of the secretaries' van busting both taillights. Operation Manager had the maintenance guy order the parts and then change them when they came in. No insurance claim filed. It's not who you know, it's . . . .
