    Hi, thank you for the video. Can you make one for discussing the distinction between primary and secondary victims and to what extent that the damage claims for secondary victims accurued consistency and fairness?

    Thanks so much for this. It would be appreciated if you could suggest any materials that speak about psychiatric injury in an employment context.
    Thank you.

      @kassiespages4727 Thanks for the comment. You are welcome. I am really sorry that I haven't prepared any materials on psychiatric injury in the employment context. I do have books which refer to the cases, but I haven't prepared any materials yet.

      @kassiespages4727 You are most welcome. I am going through a textbook called, Tort law: Texts and Materials by Mark Lunney and Ken Oliphant and I can see references to cases relating to psychiatric injury in employment contexts. Cases discussed are McFarlane v EE Caledonia (which I have a video on), Hegarty v EE Caledonia [1997] and White v Chief Constable of South Yorkshire. They also discuss Young v Charles Church (1997) and Hatton v Sutherland [2002]. Are you familiar with these cases? I have two videos on White v Chief Constable of South Yorkshire. They would probably help to understand some of the law relating to employees, but of course they are not enough if you are focusing on employment issues. I do have notes on Charles v Young Church (1997). It's on my list of cases to summarise and upload a video on and wouldn't be ready until February, but maybe I could share the write up as a blog on my website for you. Please let me know if it's a case that would help you and I will see what I can do.
      Another book I have here is Tort law by Sara Green and Jodi Gardner. I can see two cases related to employment issues. They are Rothwell v Chemical and Insulating Co Ltd [2007] and Barber v Somerset County Council [2004].
