§ 12110 Dealer Pesticide Employee Liability

This law says a pesticide dealer is responsible for everything his workers do when they sell or give advice about pesticides, and the dealer can be punished if anyone breaks the rules.

Key Takeaways

•Dealer must watch what his employees do when they sell or recommend pesticides.
•If any employee breaks the pesticide rules, the dealer’s license can be disciplined.
•The rule covers both selling pesticides and giving advice on how to use them.

Example

A store employee tells a farmer to spray a pesticide at a higher dose than allowed, and the farmer does it.

Even though the employee gave the advice, the dealer can get a fine or lose his license because the law makes the dealer responsible for his workers' actions.

Each dealer shall be responsible for the acts of each person employed by him in the solicitation and sale of pesticides and all claims and recommendations for use of pesticides. The dealer’s license shall be subject to disciplinary action for any violation of this chapter whether committed by the dealer, or by any officer, agent or employee. (Added by Stats. 1969, Ch. 1414.)
