Ukulimala okwenzeka ebhizinisini noma endaweni yokuhlala yomunye umuntu kuvame ukubangelwa ukunganaki komnikazi wendawo ekunakekeleni njalo noma ukwehluleka ukuxwayisa. Uma kwenzeka izehlakalo ezinjengalezi, umuntu olimele angase abe nesicelo se-Premises Liability ngokumelene nalowo mnikazi wendawo.

Yini Efaneleka Njengesicelo Sokuzibophezela Kwendawo?
Lolu hlobo lwezimangalo luhlanganisa izigaba eziningi zezehlakalo, kodwa ngokuvamile luhlanganisa izimo ezilandelayo ngesikhathi usempahleni yomuntu (uma umuntu olimele engazisiwe ngengozi yamanje ngezibonakaliso noma ngesexwayiso somlomo):
