The Court of Cassation, with judgment No. 9199/2012, stated that the employer should not simply adopt safety measures at work suggested by the fully-developed technology, but has also to supervise that these measures are applied by the employees. If the above-mentioned supervision is not performed, the employer is liable for damage suffered by the employee, even when the latter has consciously violated safety rules.
