While corporate managers are generally shielded from personal liability for ordinary business decisions, they can still be held accountable for breaches of duty, illegal actions, or improper use of corporate power.
However, if a supervisor had prior knowledge of the propensities of an employee, they may be subject to personal liability if they (1) negligently hire the individual, (2) authorize or cooperate in the wrongful conduct, or (3) have such expansive authority that their actions are analogized best to that of a principal.
Some laws provide that the individuals who made the decisions may be personally liable for the resulting employment actions. Under these laws, a manager or human resource professional can be sued in his individual capacity rather than as an agent of the company.
