This activity sheet is for heavy equipment operators and their supervisors. It should be used in conjunction with the activity sheet for the activity in which the heavy equipment is being used (building demolition, utility restoration). Additionally, operators of cranes and aerial lifts should also refer to the precautions outlined in the activity sheets for those operations.
A fiduciary relationship can be found where, in the actual circumstances of the relationship, the principal can expect the fiduciary to act in his (the principal's) interests in the relationship in a fiduciary manner.
Fiduciary obligations usually arise where there is a relationship of trust and confidence between the parties, rather than 'arm's length' relationships. A fiduciary relationship (which exists in equity) is distinct from a common law relationship (such as contract) which is based on personal gain.
