Possible exam question. What regulations would an employer breach should an employee be sent to a place not under the control of the employer to perform a task which would not normaly be part of their normal duties.

Pebble, perhaps you should think about rephrasing your question? Why?
Because I can simply answer it as "none"! The act of sending someone to work on a third party premise to carry out work that is not normally part of their job is not in breach of anything.
That is, provided that they have.......assessed, trained, co-ordinated with 3rd party, supervised etc. Failure to do those key things and several others, or not do them adequately, may result in various and diverse breaches.
Is that what you were asking?
Sorry I am not trying to put you down; just trying to help get the answers you seek or read your "exam" question from a different angle?

Ron and Pete have already said it - no 'automatic' breach

I think we’re talking about kidnapping,/forceful abduction here. So it’s a matter of criminal and common law here. Not sure about employment law buy definitely no breach of H&S law.
A good ‘Friday’ question by the way.

Aren't 'employment law' and 'health and safety law' both criminal and in some cases common law?
If we are talking kidnap/abduction (no idea if we are or not) then I would have thought that if the risk assessment was not suitable and sufficient, then it would be a breach of H&S law! Only a thought.
